Transcript

Learn the basic principles involved in modeling nonlinear materials for structural analysis in this archived webinar. We go over how to set up, solve, and postprocess a model of an elastoplastic bar in COMSOL Multiphysics^®. Other nonlinear material behaviors, such as viscoplasticity and creep, are also discussed.

Tip: Learn about how you can expand your structural analyses with the Nonlinear Structural Materials Module here.
