Sample Case
Solvix Quick Start
Last Updated: 2025-10-14We’ll use a “Frequency analysis” sample to kick off our first case. Frequency analysis in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is a method to determine a structure’s natural frequencies and their corresponding mode shapes, which represent how it will vibrate at those frequencies. This is crucial for understanding and predicting a system’s behavior under dynamic loads,…
Geometric Non-linearites
Last Updated: 2025-10-20About Geometric Non-linearites In Finite Element Method (FEM), geometric non-linearity occurs when a structure’s stiffness changes significantly as it deforms. This happens because the displacements, rotations, or strains are large enough to alter the component’s geometry, which in turn affects its load-bearing behavior. In a standard linear analysis, we make a key assumption: “small displacements.”…
