Static Solution #218

Closed fepauly closed 1 year ago

fepauly commented 1 year ago

Hi,

I'm currently looking into different tools to do static and dynamic analysis of cosserat rods. Hence my question: Is it possible to do static analysis with PyElastica without time integration? And if not, is it possible without too much effort to include this feature with additional code by myself without manipulating PyElastica itself?

Thank you for your feedback. Bests

PyElastica does not have a feature for static analysis. For that I think, you would need to implement an iterative solver. Cosserat Rod equations are already implemented but you need to write rest of the code.
