The Advanced Nonlinear course is a comprehensive presentation of the nonlinear capabilities available in NX Nastran solutions 601 and 701. Nonlinear topics include large displacement, large strain, nonlinear materials (plasticity, hyperelastic), and contact. The supported elements, materials, and boundary conditions are presented along with the formulations and solution schemes. Tips on solving convergence difficulties are also presented. The hands-on activities and case studies are presented using Simcenter Pre/Post for the pre- and post- processor.
Users who will be using NX Nastran Advanced Nonlinear to perform nonlinear analyses to predict structural behavior under steady state and transient conditions.
