ENd to ENd scenario with Kratos

[yvanblanchard]

Hello

could you please provide and ENd to ENd workflow with linear static FE analysis (Kratos solver), and comparing with another traditional mesh-based FEA (Abaqus, ansys , or Calculix )?

thank you!

Hi @yvanblanchard ,

in examples/cantilever you find an example case to run a linear static analysis in Kratos using QuESo. The general approach has been studied and tested quite intensively. If you are interested please have a look at the following papers:
