A number of powerful FE packages (ABAQUS, COMSOL, FEniCS, …) offer the possibility to solve complex problems (material/structural nonlinearities, multiphysics, …). The different computational methods ...

Computational models and simulations have had an important role in engineering analysis since as far back as the 1960s. It is widely recognized that the use of modeling and simulation tools can make ...
