Thermally Coupled Problems
A wide class of structural mechanics problems are related to effects of variations in temperature. In this section various such effects are discussed.
Temperatures can either be computed using another physics interface, usually Heat Transfer in Solids, or directly be prescribed in the input for the various physics nodes.
For information about the predefined coupling between the Solid Mechanics and Heat Transfer in Solids interfaces, see
