Thermal stress analysis is the process of evaluating mechanical stress caused by temperature changes in materials and structures. When materials heat up, they tend to expand; when they cool down, they contract. If this expansion or contraction is unconstrained, the
Intro Acoustic metamaterials and acoustic meta surfaces are changing how we control sound waves. These specially designed structures go beyond the limits of traditional soundproofing. They offer new ways to control sound, such as reducing noise over a wide frequency
OpenSees (Open System for Earthquake Engineering Simulation) is an open-source software framework developed primarily for nonlinear structural and geotechnical analysis, with a strong emphasis on earthquake engineering. Developed at UC Berkeley’s Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER), it provides a
As an engineer, we need to build a model to simulate a process so we can save many and reduce processing time. For this aim, we need to use conventional solvers such as Abaqus, ANSYS, Solidwork (I know, Solidwork solver

Have you ever faced a complex 3D stress analysis and wondered if there’s a way to simplify it? Finite element analysts often ask this question, especially when plane stress or plane strain assumptions might apply. These two concepts allow us
Columns are the backbone of many structures. they support roofs, floors, and beams, keeping buildings and bridges standing strong. In construction, steel and concrete are two primary materials for columns. Each has its advantages: steel is extremely strong and ductile
