Hi,
I have been developing In-house code to solve 3D Structural dynamics equation using Finite Element Method. I have used both Brick and Wedge elements (Linear).
Up to now, I have solved Static solution and matched with ABAQUS. But, results disagree for about 20%!
This is Huge. I know, for Plane strain condition there is a mismatch for about 3% (for Linear), but not this much! Can anyone please give me any suggestion?
Thanks.
