- Large Displacement Finite Element Analysis Theory Manual
  - Introduction
    Nonlinear finite element analyses confront users with many choices. An understanding of the fundamental concepts of nonlinear finite element analysis is necessary if you do not want to use the finite element program as a black box. The purpose of this manual is to describe the numerical methods included in Radioss.
  - Basic Equations
  - Finite Element Formulation
  - Dynamic Analysis
  - Element Library
    Radioss element library contains elements for one, two or three dimensional problems.
    - Solid Hexahedron Elements
    - Solid Tetrahedron Elements
    - Shell Elements
    - Solid-Shell Elements
    - Truss Elements (TYPE2)
    - Beam Elements (TYPE3)
    - One Degree of Freedom Spring Elements (TYPE4)
    - General Spring Elements (TYPE8)
    - Pulley Type Spring Elements (TYPE12)
    - Beam Type Spring Elements (TYPE13)
    - Integrated Beam Elements (TYPE 18)
      Beam type /PROP/TYPE18 uses a shear beam theory or Timoshenko formulation like /PROP/TYPE3, but the section inputs (area, inertia) can be default values and can also be discretized by sub-sections; numerical integrations are used to calculate internal forces.
    - Multistrand Elements (TYPE28)
      Multistrand elements are n-node springs where matter is assumed to slide through the nodes.
    - Spring Type Pretensioners (TYPE32)
  - Kinematic Constraints
    Kinematic constraints are boundary conditions that are placed on nodal velocities. They are mutually exclusive for each degree of freedom (DOF), and there can only be one constraint per DOF.
  - Linear Stability
    The stability of solution concerns the evolution of a process subjected to small perturbations. A process is considered to be stable if small perturbations of initial data result in small changes in the solution. The theory of stability can be applied to a variety of computational problems.
  - Interfaces
    Interfaces solve the contact and impact conditions between two parts of a model.
  - Material Laws
    A large variety of materials is used in the structural components and must be modeled in stress analysis problems. For any kind of these materials a range of constitutive laws is available to describe by a mathematical approach the behavior of the material.
  - Monitored Volume
    An airbag is defined as a monitored volume. A monitored volume is defined as having one or more 3 or 4 node shell property sets.
  - Static
    Explicit scheme is generally used for time integration in Radioss, in which velocities and displacements are obtained by direct integration of nodal accelerations.
  - Radioss Parallelization
    The performance criterion in the computation was always an essential point in the architectural conception of Radioss. At first, the program has been largely optimized for the vectored super-calculators like CRAY. Then, a first parallel version SMP made possible the exploration of shared memory on processors.

Bending About the Y Axis

Bending about the Y axis can be seen in 図 1. The equations relating to the moments being produced are calculated by:

図 1.

M_{y 1} = f_{y y} (θ_{y}) + C_{y y} {\dot{θ}}_{y}

図 2.

M_{y 2} = - M_{y 1}

Where,

$θ_{y} = θ_{y 2} - θ_{y 1}$ is the relative rotation of node 1 and 2.

f_{y y} (θ_{y})

is the function defining the force-displacement relationship.
