Thermoelasticity problem with FEM in MATLAB

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on a user seeking assistance with a thermoelasticity problem involving temperature and stress distribution in a cylinder under specific conditions. The user has implemented a MATLAB code using linear elements but encounters issues at the boundaries, described as "shock." Respondents emphasize the need for a more detailed explanation, including a clear problem description, boundary conditions, and a well-commented code. They request visual aids and specifics about the results to provide effective help. Clarity and thoroughness in the user's inquiry are essential for receiving constructive feedback.

TL;DR Summary
I want to find distribution of temperature, and stress in cylinder with inner and outer temperature and pressure.
Hello I want to find distribution of temperature, and stress in cylinder with inner and outer temperature and pressure , I used linear elements with 3 nodes and wrote matlab code, moreover I want to solve that coupled but I have problem in first and last point because those have something like shock. please help me.

My Matlab code

Your description is very very short and your code hardly has any comments. This means we would need to do a lot of work to understand your problem. If you want help you need to explain a lot more about what you are actually trying to do. Please:

- Provide a drawing with the problem you are trying to solve with a cylinder and all boundary conditions, initial conditions, material assumptions etc etc, all there is to know about your problem
- Please provide a description of the finite element model you are trying to solve, where you apply what boundary conditions (yes, again!) etc.
- Please clean up your code and add in comments where you do what.
- Please describe exactly what you see in your results that doesn't seem to be right and why you think that. What do you expect? 'something like a shock' is not nearly good enough...

In other words, please make it as easy as possible for us to help you.
 
I ran your code and the results were a couple of plots without definition of the axis and no legend. Please don't make me guess and fix that as well.
 
Here's a video by “driving 4 answers” who seems to me to be well versed on the details of Internal Combustion engines. The video does cover something that's a bit shrouded in 'conspiracy theory', and he touches on that, but of course for phys.org, I'm only interested in the actual science involved. He analyzes the claim of achieving 100 mpg with a 427 cubic inch V8 1970 Ford Galaxy in 1977. Only the fuel supply system was modified. I was surprised that he feels the claim could have been...
Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'
Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...
