PFEMIntegrator

PFEMIntegrator(gamma: float = 0.5, beta: float = 0.25)

Particle Finite Element Method (PFEM) fluid-structure transient integrator.

PFEMIntegrator is designed for coupling fluid and structural dynamic solver matrices in particle-based finite element modeling.

Tcl form

integrator PFEM <gamma> <beta>

Example

from femora.core.model import Model

model = Model()
integ = model.analysis.integrator.pfem(gamma=0.5, beta=0.25)

Create a PFEM fluid-structure transient integrator.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
`gamma`	`float`	Gamma integration parameter. Defaults to 0.5.	`0.5`
`beta`	`float`	Beta integration parameter. Defaults to 0.25.	`0.25`
