6×6 stiffness matrix #57

Dear Sir, hello Can NuMAD calculate the 6×6 stiffness matrix of a wind turbine blade section?

ecamare commented 2 months ago

Yes but the input is not a 2D cross-sectional mesh. The input would be the complete shell mesh of the beam/wind blade. It would use Blade Properties Extractor (BPE).

Hello, Sir. Is the calculation result of BPE accurate? Does version 2 of NuMAD support BPE computing? I look forward to your reply. Thank you
