Here's when to use linear-static FEA and when to use a nonlinear program. Most engineering problems contain nonlinear effects. Take a paper clip, for example. Push on one end hard enough and the clip ...
• Most problems are nonlinear from the get-go. • Simplified load-deflection cases can help explain nonlinear (structural) FEA. Which designers need nonlinear FEA and why? Actually, projects ranging ...
“We report on the analysis and design of atomically thin graphene resonant nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) that can be engineered to exhibit anharmonicity in the quantum regime. Analysis of ...
