Structural Mechanics
 Product Description:
Structural Mechanics™ for Maple™ 10 is a collection of procedures
in the Classical Interface which gives engineers and scientists familiar
with the theory of Structural Mechanics and the Finite Element Method,
a new approach to the calculation of statics and dynamics of spatial
beam structures including discrete masses and inertias in points, springs
and dampers. This package can be used for solving modern and classical
problems and creating graphical representations of their solutions.
With Structural Mechanics, users can generate graphical representations
and animations of structural deformations to visualize the mechanics
of individual components and confirm design parameters.
Intended Audience:
- Researchers and engineers who work with mechanical and structural
systems
- Engineers, educators and students using, teaching and learning
strength of materials and elasticity
- Development engineers and programmers
of CAE systems
- Mechanical and civil engineers doing modeling or system
development
- Scientists, researchers, mathematicians, physicists,
engineers and educators in a wide range of fields including mechanics
and product design
Applications of Structural Mechanics include:
- Structural Design
- Strength of material
- Mechanics
- Product design
- Modelling of machinery
Features list:
- Symbolic display of spatial beam structures including discrete masses
and inertias in points, springs and dampers
- View typical cross section
shapes and calculate their typical parameters
- Calculate static deformations,
stress resultants and support reactions of structures
- Dynamic calculation
of structures with respect to natural modes and forced vibrations
- Visualize
dynamic deformations, animate natural modes
- Calculation and visualization
of dynamic forced structures even with consideration of discrete damping
units
- Define discrete nodal masses, springs and dampers to facilitate
the calculation of structures with tuned mass dampers
Technical Requirements
- Maple 10
- For Windows only
