Dear All,

I want to know why Iteration is caused in Caesar.What is the Reason behind it & what is the remedy for it???

As i know, it is caused mainly due to Friction & provision of Guide.

Regards,

Jeba Anand

Jeba,

Simple way: Read Non Linear Restraints in CAESAR II Technical Reference Manual.

Difficult way: You have to understand how a Non Linear problem is solved. A simple book to read: Concepts and Applications of Finite element analysis by Cook, Malkus and Plesha.

A more advanced book: Non Linear Finite element Analysis by Chrisfield.
