Re :  Notes on files math-fe.zip 

The above-mentioned file contains 9 files as follows :

1.  Input Files

    elem -- This file contains informations on element connectivity.
    node -- This file contains informations nodal coordinates.
    load -- This file contains mechanical boundary conditions (load).
    disp -- This file contains displacement boundary conditions.

2.  Element Properties Files

    shqm6.m -- This file defines element shape functions and several
               data control parameters.

    dpss.m  -- This file defines elasticity matrix for plane stress
               analysis.

3.  User Defined Mathematica Functions

    readqm6.m -- This file contains self written packages to read in
                 those input files, produced nodal plots, solution to
                 F.E. problem and finally a bit of post processing.

4.  Mathematica NoteBook

    solvqm6.ma --  This is the notebook front end of the mathematica 
                   program, in this particular problem, it controls
	           the finite element analysis process.

5.  Completed NoteBook

    The 8 files describe above are the only files required to run the 
    analysis.  At the end of the session, more result files will be 
    produce like :

    resfile.m -- file containing nodal coordinates, element connectivity 
                 and calculated nodal displacements.

    results.m -- file containing extrapolated elemental stresses.

 
    The number 9th file in fact is the resulting notebook which you obtain
    after the session with the name of :

    solvps.ma

		   

The four input files is problem dependent,  the layout of input files are 
to suit ANSYS format where I built F.E. model in ANSYS and output it for 
the use of Mathematica program.
