R codes for FEA of microscale structures using the modified couple stress theory

microfiniteR

This package is developed as a companion material to the book "R for Finite Element Analyses of Size-dependent Microscale Structures". It is a collection of functions to assist in the computations of bending, free vibration and bucking analyses of microscale beams and plates. The finite element models are based on the Timoshenko beam and Kirchhoff plate formulations within the framework of the modified couple stress theory.

Installation

The package installation requires base R, RStudio and the devtools package.

#install.packages("devtools")

devtools::install_github("khameelbm/microfiniteR")

Documentation

Documentation of the package was done via the roxygen package. After microfiniteR is installed, the description of the functions can be accessed via the usual method of function querry in R.
