Hi Daniel,

Thanks a lot for your answer, as you ask me, I give the elesticity equations. Imagine in 2D, U=(u,v) a two-dimensional spatial field, mu and lambda are the Lamé parameters (constant or possibly spatial functions). F=(f,g) is an external force field.

Then the system of two equations is say :

div.[ mu grad(U) + mu [grad(U)]^T + lambda I tr(grad(U)) ] + F = (0,0).

As you see, both u and v appear in the two equations,
Inside the div.[...] you will matrices.

In your opinion, can it be possible to embed those equations in the Fipy framework ?

Hope it is possible, anyway thank you so much for your help,

ps : This is stationary equations (elastostatics) .

Regards,
florian

Hi Florian,

Can you write down the set of equations that you are trying to solve?
Maybe we can help. I am not aware of anyone trying to
use fipy to solve elasticity equations, but it may be possible.

Hi,

I'm trying to solve the 2D linear elasticity system with Fipy.
It's a little bit tricky because it involves multivariate system of
equations
with a  viscosity tensor with coupled variables.
