QuasistaticAnalysis

Solve for static equilibrium using multiple steps.

No inertial terms.

Fields

end_time: Float, default = 0.0

See end_time in TransientAnalysis. Note that depending on the problem, the time can be real or a ficticious variable to parametrize boundary conditions.
time_step: Float, default = 0.0

See time_step in TransientAnalysis.
num_time_steps: Integer, default = 0

See num_time_steps in TransientAnalysis.
max_dt: Float, default = 0.0

See max_dt in TransientAnalysis.
min_dt: Float, default = 0.0

See min_dt in TransientAnalysis.
max_num_time_steps: Integer, default = 5000

Maximum number of time steps to prevent a simulation running excessively long if the timestep drops a lot.
adaptive_time_step: Bool, default = false

Flag to enable adaptive time-stepping.
- true: Enable adaptive time-stepping.
- false: Used fixed time step.
time_stepping: TimeStepping, default = {}

Options for the timestepping solver.
per_timestep_tssolve: Bool, default = false

Internal flag to either make a on call to TSSolve() for each time step (true) or a single call to PETSc's TSSolve() (false, default).
nonlinear_solver: NonlinearSolver, default = {}

Options for the non-linear solver.
line_search: LineSearch, default = {}

Options for the line search method.
