Finite element mesh browser
is a demonstration Java applet showing main features of
the correspondent Java application. You can try GUI with
one three-dimensional mesh composed of 20-noded quadratic
elements. Main principle: Press the button to select a desired
action then drag mouse to perform selected action.

Assembly of the global
stiffness matrix in the finite element method The
global stiffness matrix K can be filled in a quite
different manner depending on the node order of the finite
element mesh. Java applet JASSEM demonstrates graphically
the fill of the global matrix by contributions from finite
elements. [Screenshot

Analysis of elastic-plastic
crack-tip fields is based on the three-term elastic-plastic
asymptotic expansion of stress fields. The applet allows
the user: (a) to obtain angular function of the three-term
asymptotic expansion; (b) to determine the amplitude parameter
A in addition to the J-integral; (c) to compare graphically
asymptotic field with specified finite element data. |

Transformation of CTOD
Delta5. Delta5 is a displacement of points located
2.5 mm above and below crack tip at the specimen surface.
The Java applet transforms CTOD Delta5 to CTOD DeltaBS and
J-integral for CT and 3PB specimens. |
