Structural Mechanics

Structural Mechanics is a handy application that allows you to experiment, comprehend, get preliminary results for tasks before performing finite element simulation, which requires cumbersome calculations and a lot of time. This solution does not replace expensive programs for time-consuming finite element analysis (FEM), but gives scope for creativity.
Structural Mechanics allows:
Determine the basic properties of the cross sections defined and selected by the user.
Analytically and numerically calculate the curvature functions, stress fields, deflection of cantilever beams. In addition, using a set of two-dimensional and three-dimensional graphical functions, construct the diagrams of the deflections of beams under the action of given loads.
Find analytical solutions for tangential stresses and torsional displacements, also for a set of cross-section constants, such as torsional and flexural stiffness.
To study the finite element method using Structural Mechanics tools to generate form functions and perform two-dimensional finite element analysis.
Calculate the main stresses and their direction, as well as the maximum tangential stress and its direction. Calculate and build the Moh's stresses to see a flat representation of the three-dimensional stress state.
It is easy to obtain and analytically convert the cumbersome equations of the linearized theory of elasticity in Cartesian, cylindrical or spherical coordinates.
