If you ever have tried to analyze pressure vessels, you know that there is ONE feature that you absolutely need to be able to use… Stress linearization! Why? The short answer is that you can’t extract the bending stresses and other kind of stresses you need to check your model against the ASME code section […]
[Salome Meca Tutorial] How to simulate a contact solid-plate
In a previous post a few days ago, I was showing t you how to simulate a glued contact between 2 solids. I realised that there were few nuances that I didn’t describe in that video when you needed to make a contact between a solid and a plate so I made another video to […]
[Code Aster Tutorial] How to run your simulation with Astk
If you are new to Salome-Meca, you probably never heard about Astk… Astk is the way to run the command file and link all other files together which was used before Aster Study. It still works! …And sometimes, it is even more convenient than Aster Study to use, so I decided to make this video […]
[Salome Meca Tutorial] How to define a glued contact between parts
I am back for a new video about Salome Meca and Code_aster… this time about glued contact! If you want to perform an FEA simulation or a mechanical system, it only seems natural to have several parts in your analysis interacting together… Even if for test cases, you can use a simple plate model, real […]
[Salome-Meca Tutorial] How to perform a modal analysis?
In this video tutorial for Salome-Meca 2017, I will show you how to do a modal analysis of a simple plate with Aster-Study! Here’s what you will learn: How to model the plate and prepare the mesh How to use the ASSEMBLAGE function to generate the mass and rigid matrix. How to use the […]
[Salome Meca Tutorial] Simulating a 2D Quarter Plate
It has been some time already since the last Salome-Meca video tutorial… The next one will teach you how to model, mesh and simulate a 2D Quarter Plate. And that’s probably one of the most important tutorials you want to follow for Salome-Meca 2017 Here’s the video: There will be more soon, and especially a […]
