About

Maintained by Henna D. BhramdatFirst published 2022-03-082 releasesCRAN page ↗

Finite element modeling of beam structures and 2D geometries using constant strain triangles. Applies material properties and boundary conditions (load and constraint) to generate a finite element model. The model produces stress, strain, and nodal displacements; a heat map is available to demonstrate regions where output variables are high or low. Also provides options for creating a triangular mesh of 2D geometries. Package developed with reference to: Bathe, K. J. (1996). Finite Element Procedures.[ISBN 978-0-9790049-5-7] -- Seshu, P. (2012). Textbook of Finite Element Analysis. [ISBN-978-81-203-2315-5] -- Mustapha, K. B. (2018). Finite Element Computations in Mechanics with R. [ISBN 9781315144474].

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("FEA", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-fea

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-FEA

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-FEA

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
