Cast3M presentation:
- History
- Basic principles
- The command language: Gibiane
Introducing the PASAPAS procedure:
- General use
- Input parameters
- Output parameters
- Post-processing
Structure of the PASAPAS procedure:
- Structure of PASAPAS
- Structure of UNPAS
- User's procedure examples in mechanics
- Structure of TRANSNON
- User's procedure examples in thermo-mechanics
This training course is given as a tutorial. From an existing Gibiane program, which is using PASAPAS, participants will have to modify the PASAPAS procedure in oder to solve a different problem. It consists of adding new Gibiane instructions in the initial alogorithm.
Four examples will be used in non linear mechanics, transient thermal analysis and coupled thermo-mechanics. We will focus on the following topics:
- large displacements and following loading
- variable models and material properties
- variable boundary conditions.
Some parts will be the subject of detailed points on the whiteboard. A part of time will be devoted to various users questions about Cast3M. Participants can bring their own scripts in order to discuss their modeling.
The training course takes place in a computer room. Each participant will have a PC with the latest version of Cast3M.
