Victor, thank you very much for your new version.
I will download it this week. I cannot help.
I want to try out the stratighten edges on meshing round shapes (for example circular bolt holes).
I also what to see shear and moment diagrams. I am exc…
Tomorroy I will set up environmental variables as follows:
OMP_NUM_THREADS = [ 6 ; 8; 10; 12]
OPENBLAS_NUM_THREADS =1
PASTIX_MIXED_PRECISION = 1
PASTIX_ORDERING = 0
PASTIX_SCHEDULER = 0
Let's see what happends!

JohnM, you ar right. Around 6-8 cores we get a horizontal asymptote(flattening of the plot cores vs time). My experience running the bolt benchmark using 24 cores was that the computer continued running while minuts were passing by. So there is clea…
Good morning
Last week I installed Baram CFD(https://nextfoam.github.io/baram-pages/), which is an opensource gui openfoam front-end. Right now I am doing some testing which means I am still messing with meshers. My intentions are to do simple wind…
Disla, thank you very much for your model. Amazing.
I really like the way you use MW-groups and the new MW bolt pretension option which I am going to use from now.
I agree with you that we should go on investigating how to retreive moment-rotation …
Good afternoon Sebastianmaklary:
My clarification about the procedure I am thinking about:
1. Draw the 3d model on Freecad-FC(which is "sometimes" a pain).
2. Set the finite element model on MW.
3. Export the *.inp file. This is an export option …
You all are right.
I sort it out.
I turned "Fit midside nodes to geometry" ON.
I remeshed the stem of the bolts
and it works now!!!
Thank you very much(again).
Manuel
Good morning:
Thank you for your help I really appreciate it.
DISLA: I will remesh the bolts in order to improve the smoothness of the stem. Great 3d view of the bolt-hole connection.
SERGIO: Your are right. The displacement is under 1mm which is…
Good afternoon Sebastianmaklary:
I tried it out last christmas and it works.
What I want to do next is to retreive the beso configuration file and run it directily on calculix (without using FC). You need to install python.
Good morning ANDREAC91:
I also asked for help on the CCX forum with no answer.
And there is no Mfront update. It seem that the mazars model routine does not deliver material matrixes properly.
In my case, I have not tried another damage model for…
I enclose(a rar file including steps and liml files) you the masonry arch I have been working on. But unfortunately, no displacement are produced after calculation. Could you try it out? Maybe is because of my MFRONT version??? I do not know. thank …
A month ago, I set up CXX +MFRONT in order to using MAZARS material model for brittle materials. I also wanted to model a masonry arch.
Unfortunately the library failed after the calculation due to a bug while calculating the tangent matrix. I hop…
Dear Andrea:
I am experienced on simulating 3d archs using compression only material.
Maybe soon, I expect to get a new mfront compilation linked to MW with mazars material model ready to use. Then we will be able to reproduce cracks on brittle mat…
Good morning LORENZOS:
Nice to meet you and welcome to our community. I constantly learn a lot from this group of enthusiasts on FEM.
I agree with SERGIO, FC is a pain (I have a love-and-hate relationship) but I want to tell you that I recently u…
Good afternoon KENNEtHFUGATE:
You are right but I do not know why.
I realized that as soon as I increased the time period I got better convergence.
In this case, I began calculations imposing 0-1 seconds range but I end up in 0-1000seconds.
