Now I reused the full Hexaeder mesh (Hex20 & Wedge15 only) from Ansys in PrePoMax to make some comparisons. In my post “Wind turbine hub calculation in Ansys” you find more information of the mesh…

Wind turbine hub calculation in Ansys
Some will already know the wind turbine hub model, but now I have taken the time and remade the model in Ansys Mechanical. At the latest, the following animated image should bring back memories of…
Wind turbine hub calculation in Fatlab (PrePoMax results)
Finally, my CalculiX interface in Fatlab now works also for more complex results from PrePoMax. The following video shows a complete fatigue calculation run of a simple hub in Fatlab with PrePoMax (Calculix) results. I…
PrePoMax / CalculiX results in Fatlab
I show my first implementation of a model and unit stress interface for PrePoMax / CalculiX results in Fatlab. Now I am able to import the calculated FEM mesh model from the CalculiX ccx input…
Wind turbine hub calculation in PrePoMax
I would like to calculate the finite element stress of a 5MW wind turbine hub for a fatigue calculation in Fatlab and I came across PrePoMax. PrePoMax is an open-source pre- and postprocessor for an…
