Examples
The following examples are provided to illustrate how users could use FEAP to solve some basic problems.
Static Analyses
Thermal Analyses
Example of a hollow thermal tube with external temperatures and inner fluxes
Example of a 3D hollow thermal tube with external temperatures and inner fluxes
Coupled Thermo-mechanical Analyses
Hill-Mandel Computations
FEAP has a facility for computing Hill-Mandel averages, stress and tangent tensor components. To use this facility one needs to have a periodic mesh.
Contact Problems
Isogeometric Analyses
J-Integral Computation
FEAP has a facility for computing J Integrals (energy release rates) in elastic problems. The feature is slightly experimental so please verify that you are getting sensible answers for your class of problems before relying on it.
