FEM Subsystem Replacement Techniques for Strength Problems in Variable Geometry Trusses
(Elsevier, 2007-12-01)
This work presents the application of a procedure for replacing FEM subsystems with a high number of dofs (possibility of including mobile internal parts) using equivalent parametric macroelements (EPMs) with a much reduced ...
Analysis and Characterization of the Behaviour of a Variable Geometry Structure
(SAGE, 2007-11)
The study about a variable geometry truss is presented. The first step is a kinematic design and later an analysis using the MSC/Adams code. Then, the finite-element method with the MSC/Nastran code was used to develop a ...
