The LS-OPT Version 4.0 beta release is now available at: LS-OPT 4.0 The Presentations folder has an overview and outlook of LS-OPT. The main feature is the next generation post-processor (Viewer). Note that LS-OPT/Topology will be available later in 2009 as a separate module.

Mass calculations for Discrete Beams

Discrete beams, like discrete springs, require valid mass at the nodes to compute the timestep. Unlike continuum based elements, the length of the discrete beams, are not used in the timestep calculations. Hence realistic density in the discrete beam material model must be used. There are two methods this can be achived. Density (RHO) in [...]
