The purpose is to demonstrate non-linear materials and phenomenon can directly be expressed through shape functions that are processed on a local scale, element by element individually. Thus regardless of constraint, the global matrix never has to be recomputed. We are not saying we are the fastest, or that we converge faster than other methods, but that we are able to express non-linearity's locally. The calculation of the non-linear term, the exactness of the inputs are not what we are aiming for, we are aiming for the output to be as close to the exact solution based on whatever input is given. Any research into further developing the exactness of the method can easily be transferred to our method and have increased performance, ease of implementation, and so forth.

IDETC2020 - Virtual Conference

Supporting the need among researchers worldwide for additional online and multimedia content, ASME now offers the ASME Conference Video Collection. This platform will collect and provide long-term access to conference presentation videos, encompassing all technology areas within ASME's technical conference and events program. About 30,000-40,000 engineers across all mechanical engineering and related disciplines participate in ASME conferences each year. This includes authors of approximately 6,000 to 8,000 technical papers published by ASME, the majority of whom also submit video presentations for our virtual conferences. The video collection will be available as an add-on to existing product packages or as a separate subscription.
