Vibration Modes of a Hollow Cylinder
This model studies the vibration modes of a free and hollow cylinder using an axisymmetric approximation. No loads or constrains are applied as the free modes are sought. The cylinder is 10 m long, has a center diameter of 2 m, and is 0.4 m thick. Moreover, the material of the cylinder is considered to be steel with E …
Topology Optimization with MATLAB and FEATool Multiphysics
This is an advanced model example showing how topology optimization can be implemented and modeled with FEATool. The model has been developed and kindly shared to us by Prof. Shintaro Yamasaki at the Department of Mechanical Engineering of Osaka University. In contrast to standard simulations where the domain and …
