Explore what efficient software is, learn to download and install it, generate command files for finite element analyses, add a load stepping function, and assign materials to geometry.
Download and install efficient version 0 1 1 on your Windows computer by navigating to the website, clicking download, and running the installer from the downloads folder.
Explore an overview of efficient software, its organized tabs and panels, and the workflow to generate command files using dropdowns, text boxes, and save or clear actions.
generate a Code_Aster .comm file for a 200 mm by 5 mm shell, fix one end, apply 2000 N on the opposite edge, and define material, section, and boundary conditions.
apply a stepping function to a load by adding three forces (force x, force y, force z) at 2000 newtons across seven steps in the command file wizard.
In this section you will find all the command files that were generated during this course.
Head to the Resources section and download the zip file.
One thing to note here is that as the Command files were generated in a Windows environment, it may not work in any other Operating System.
I encourage you to use these command files in analysis of your own.
This course is structured in such a way that anyone new to Efficient software can download it and start using it in less than an hour.
By the end of this course you will be able to develop Command files for the following Finite Element Analysis that can be used in Code_Aster:
All command files generated during this course will be provided at the end of the course so that you can download them and use them to test the course content.
This course is structured such that within one hour you will be proficient in using Efficient software and will be able to generate command files of your own.
Efficient is the software developed to help users of Code-Aster to generate .comm files quickly and accurately.
