Analyses

This page maps the cumulative QF Solver 0.2.11 analysis surface. The experimental rotating routes have their own evidence and are not part of the immutable 0.2.10 tag or distribution. The consolidated 0.2.8 registry remains authoritative for its 46 element-analysis decisions. Development-cycle evidence is linked separately and does not rewrite that registry.

Analysis Maturity / evidence status Scope boundary
Linear static QUALIFIED_BOUNDED Only recorded element/material/load/mesh combinations.
Modal Route-dependent; see registry Controlled linear eigenvalue cases; mass and family scope vary.
Newmark transient Route-dependent; mixed route EXPERIMENTAL_BOUNDED Linear dynamics only; recorded time-step, mass and damping assumptions apply.
Harmonic Route-dependent; mixed route EXPERIMENTAL_BOUNDED Recorded linear frequency-domain cases only.
Linear buckling Route-dependent Bounded first-factor cases; not postbuckling or bifurcation analysis.
Rotating modal EXPERIMENTAL One signed speed per solve; serial dense QEP; straight circular-isotropic BEAM2 shaft with centered rigid axisymmetric disks, undamped and unprestressed. See scope and limitations.
Campbell sweep / modal tracking EXPERIMENTAL Orchestrates explicit ordered speeds through the bounded rotating_modal route; complex MAC, global assignment, subspace-aware degeneracy and visible ambiguity. No forced-response or general rotordynamics claim; see Campbell limits.
Small-strain J2 QUALIFIED_BOUNDED The exact element-analysis combinations in the registry.
Corotational J2 QUALIFIED_BOUNDED within accepted scope HEX8 only; large rotations with small local strains, not general finite-strain plasticity.
Total-Lagrangian geometric nonlinear Audited GO_WITH_LIMITATIONS; maturity not promoted Selected StVK static serial TET4/HEX8 cases.
Coupled material/geometric nonlinear Owner-accepted bounded evidence Selected static cases across TET4/TET10/HEX8/HEX20; no friction, dynamics, MPI/PETSc or external correlation.
Frictionless contact EXPERIMENTAL_BOUNDED Penalty node-to-triangle bounded route.
Frictional contact Prior Owner-accepted bounded evidence; current-source formal requalification not established Narrow serial stick/slip route; mesh sensitivity and search limitations remain.
Arc-length continuation Experimental bounded evidence No general limit-point, bifurcation, or postbuckling claim.
PETSc/MPI static Owner-accepted bounded evidence Two-rank linear-static one-element cases with replicated input/root-side assembly.

For element-family boundaries use the elements map. For nonlinear mechanics see the mechanics overview and capability matrix. The current 0.2.11 V&V summary and separate 0.2.10 evidence distinguish implementation, verification, bounded acceptance, and physical validation.
