Basics of Nastran and Patran
1Nastran and Patran : Developed by United States of America
2Language used for Nastran : Fortran
3Some of the most common solution sequence codes are for structural analysis:
101 - Linear Static
103 - Modal
105 - Buckling
106 - Non-Linear Static

Linear Static Solution
1

Deflections should be small relative to structure.

2 Material should be linear elastic.

3 Boundary conditions should be constant

Non linear static solution
Geometric Nonlinearity :

Involve large displacements

geometric nonlinear analysis involves follower forces

The load is no longer vertical. It has followed the structure to its deformed state.

Material non linearity: Exhibits non-linear stress-strain relationship .
Examples: Metal Plasticity, rubbery materials, materials like soil and concrete etc.
Von Mises or Tresca (for metals) and Mohr-Coulomb or Drucker-Prager (for frictional
materials such as soils or concrete)

Case study of Tail Rotor Control System of Helicopter

Mainly used to counter the torque effect developed by main rotor system
A tail rotor develops extra thrust when the helicopter moves it into clean air.

The tail rotor system rotates airfoils, small wings called blades.
Blades are made of composite materials like carbon fiber composite.
Anti Torque pedals are used for pitch changing mechanism.
