LinearAlgorithm

LinearAlgorithm(initial: bool = False, factor_once: bool = False)

Linear solution algorithm for solving linear equations in one iteration.

LinearAlgorithm is used in linear static or transient analyses where the stiffness matrix does not change during the step.

Tcl form

algorithm Linear [-initial] [-factorOnce]

Example

from femora.core.model import Model

model = Model()
algo = model.analysis.algorithm.linear(initial=True)

Create a Linear solution algorithm.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
`initial`	`bool`	If True, uses the initial structural stiffness matrix.	`False`
`factor_once`	`bool`	If True, sets up and factors the matrix only once.	`False`
