Thanks John for the message. I am aware of your contribution in that end, however, I was wondering if there was any progress with that class to any other physics problem.
However, I would appreciate sharing your code, which (after reviewing to understand more about the class and its implementation) I would like to use in both developing the code for my problem and, also, preparing a simple example code in elastostatics (a network of trusses maybe?). cheers, Vasileios > On 13 Oct 2017, at 19:08, John Peterson <jwpeter...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > On Fri, Oct 13, 2017 at 12:57 AM, Vasileios Vavourakis <vas...@gmail.com > <mailto:vas...@gmail.com>> wrote: > Dear all, > > I was wondering if anyone has available to share with the users-list an > example that utilises the *libMesh::ContinuationSystem* class. > > I aim developing a code in 3D elastostatics of a fibre-reinforced inelastic > material (that undergoes large deformations). > As such, it occurs to me that the arc-length method is a viable solution, > since it may overcome some of the limitations inherent to the conventional > Newton-Raphson method. > > Look forward to hearing your thoughts and testing your example codes (: > > This was a class I used in some work for my dissertation.
