Solid Mechanics
Finite Volume Solvers
The included solid mechanics solvers employ the finite volume method
(not finite elements/elephants) to numerically approximate the
displacements and stresses in solid bodies undergoing deformation.
The included solvers feature the following capabilities:
small strain
small strain with large rotations
large strain
Mises-Levy J2 plasticity
thermal-elasticity
visco-elasticity
gravity body forces
fluid-structure interactions
multi-material analyses
contact stress analysis with friction
small strain orthotropic elasticity
large strain orthotropic elasticity
cohesive zones
predefined crack path
arbitrary crack propagation
custom boundary conditions
Aitken's under-relaation for displacement field
A number of people have contributed to the development of the solvers,
mainly within Alojz Ivankovic's research group. The code has been
assembled and is maintained by Philip Cardiff (University College Dublin),
and significant contributions have been made by Aleksandar Karac, Zeljko
Tukovic, Hrvoje Jasak, Declan Carolan, Michael Leonard, Valentine
Kanyanta, David McAuliffe, Declan McNamara and Tian Tang.
Have fun.
Philip
