NLDYNA - Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis

Abstract

This project describes a general in-house finite element assembler and solver aimed at studying the non-linear response of dynamic systems. The code is intended, and has been developed, to be used in the testing of material models, complex kinematic formulations and/or novel structural systems commonly required in research activities. The code has been implemented on top of SolidsPy and has been deployed in a GitHub repository which allows portability, strict control version and facilitates it extension in future developments.
