  1. Discussed assigned task progress.
    • Steve implemented the in-situ strain test problem in FEBIo.
      • A two-step analysis was set up.
      • In the first step in-situ stretch is applied (for different levels of stretch)
      • In the next step a saw tooth prescribed displacement was applied on the free end of the beam (geometry : 1 by 10 mm mesh) and the stress-displacement curves were provided.
      • Ahmet made an observation regarding the constitutive model (stress is not zeroed in the model). This will be fixed/implemted by the Utah team.
    • A new version of FEBio will be released in January 2014.
