My eclectic thread!

The ALE formulation uses the displacement boundary conditions applied by the D, DL, and DA commands to update the finite element mesh. It determines the displacement at the beginning of each time step relative to the previous time step. For each time step, an elasticity based morphing algorithm updates the mesh. The algorithm ensures that boundary layers are retained (that is, nodes in a fine mesh area move less than nodes in a coarse mesh area).

A transient analysis cannot proceed if morphing fails. If morphing is independent of the fluid flow solution, you can step through the morphing algorithm before doing a fluid flow analysis to determine whether morphing will fail. To do so, issue the following command sequence:

/solu
.
.
.
fldata,solu,turb,f
fldata,solu,temp,f
fldata,solu,spec,f
fldata,solu,ale,t
fldata,solu,flow,f
solve
You can not check for morphing failure in advance if the time step size depends on the fluid flow variables or the problem involves a free surd.

This is what I work on, among many other things... More blah...You like this thread...C'mon! Admit it and be saved! I'm not up to par tonight, I'll try tommorow.

Don't make fun...Puffins can peck! Hahaha! You are nothing but a mere nambsie p Pamsie to the Puffins! Peehehehe!

Stuff like that makes me remember I never took Physics in High School at all - the teacher choice was not my favorite. I could pretend to kinda follow all that, but really, haven't a clue!

Hmm...Well you know I could teach you...

Yep Karen....I HATED Physics in college...my brain works backwards from it...which is kind of frightening when you think about it, being that Physics is what makes the world go 'round and I see it backwards. Hmmmm....Puffin....what kind of weirdness could I create with that???? Imagine the possibilities!! lol

STEP ONE OF TWO:First of all the mesh is used as an analyzing device in fluid dynamics that the fluid arbitrarily absorbing and emitting photons (hence the name radiation hydrodynamics)passes through the mesh, and the ALE stands for Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian moving mesh...As the step in time (time step) continues, the mesh becomes more and more distorted, thus becoming an asymptotic algorithm When the time step runs out, the mesh must be given up and thus from the collapsed mesh we get a polynomal...a function f that will give us the ratio of its position to time at any given point in space, thus recreating a mesh with the delta derived from the function...The mesh can continue to another time step. using the method known as the Monte Carlo method, we view the system from the outside until the time step runs out, then we can integrate another systems time to activate the Eulerian codes that are simplified units of information that can be combined to create the mesh. Part two...Umm..Pending...

OMG!!! after reading all of this i think my brain is frying!!

All you need to do is read it slowly, bit by bit, thats how I understood. I'm no above average guy, just think math is "rad"

Write that down...Make it a post...Really, it would be quite deep...

This is the absolute BEST thread! Ideas are spilling from our provacative minds! Howl if you love Allen Ginsberg!

Think ratio to reality 5:7 variable. Hmm...Yeesh that sounds like some corny 13 year old girls Sabrina show or one of those stupid movies like Crush Course...Hehehe

Math is just another language, kind of like a pattern for making things. They teach it in such a way that it discourages people from attempting it. It's funny, though, like Karen said, when you take a strange concept, break it into little pieces and relate each piece to something you know, you'd be amazed when you put it all together at what you can learn and understand! I believe in trying to know things, so we become a better society of aware people. The same applies to our understanding of our animals.

Pre-mathematics:Manifestation of patterns Mathematics: finding patterns
Latter mathematics: analyzing patterns.

PLEASE understand I am really not as stupid as this may make me sound.....

so physics is math?!?!

Math derives from physics, unless you go to www.physicsforums.com and talk to Alexander, he thinks that the universe is created by mathematics...
