Continuum

Project Origin: By AceBuddy

This is a serverside project. This is a web-based software for engineers, which supports the computation of the resistance in materials used by civil and mechanic engineers.

Technologies used

What are their services?

Continuum offers web-based engineering services mostly for aerospace, mechanical, and civil engineers.

Video presentation

What did we do?

We created a software that allows an engineer to set conditions for a material, then the software utilized mechanic of solids and finite element to compute the final resistence of the materials.

Software functionalities

How does it work?

The engineer starts by adding to the system all the constants of the material, and the properties that define the material. Then the engineer can configure on that material what forces are applied, magnitudes, and directions including angles starting clockwise. The engineer would proceed to calculate reactions due to the external forces, axial stress, axial deformation, torsion, torsional angle, and flexion stress. Not only that the engineer play with a complex range of values due to the way how the application was built, but each module is also a mathematical set of equations placed as a web interface which allows an engineer to exchange values and compute approximations each time more precise due to the iterations done by the program using Gaussian elimination and partial differential equations with multiple variables under the elastic range of the solid.

Example of a module in the software

The engineer is able to modify any material constant, external - internal forces, moment of inertia to figure out the desired shear force, torsion and more.
