有谁知道美国的MCM/MCAP软件是否出售？
多少钱？

此软件为birdair公司内部开发的专业膜计算软件, 属于公司机密, 不出售.
不过该公司给建筑师提供只有找形模块的简单版本.
从该公司对其技术宣传上来看,该软件真的是功能异常强大.

什么地方可以知道MCM的技术介绍

以下摘自User's manual:
  
MCM is an interactive model-building and FEM preprocesssing program designed to be used in conjunction with MCAP for model building of tensile membrane and other larger deflection structural system.
  
MCM allows the user to build 3D FEM models interactively. It contains many features such as editing, form-finding, load creation and manipulation for preprocessing, and general postprocessing. The program allows the user to easily view the model from an orientation. It uses on-screen menus to display all available options throughout the program session.
  
MCM operates at two different "command levels." The main menu contains the primary "main commands." These main commands allow access  into the program's main processors. Each processor has its own unique "subcommand" menu specifically tailor to its function. There is also a set of universal (or common) commands that are available throughout the program.
  
MCM performs shape generation (form-finding) in two different ways, based on either prestress force or on force densities. Each method bas advantages and disadvantagees. MCM is suitable for form-finding of relatively simple system. MCAP should be used for form-finding of more complex systems.

关于MCAP, 有如下描述:
  
MCAP is a large deflection finite element method stress analysis program, based on stiffness method, and designed to be used in conjunction with MCM. It is designed for both shape generation and stress analysis of large deflection (i.e. geometrically non-linear) membrane, cablenet, and frame systems.
  
The program presently has three basic types of 3D elements:
  
- Axial elements (two-noded line element)
- Membrane elements (three-noded triangular elements)
- Beam elements (six degrees of freedom per node)
  
The axial  elements are used to model cable segments, truss elements, struts, geodesic and force density elements; in other words, elements that carry only axial loads. The membrane elements (CST elements) are used to model either (tensile only) fabric elements or (tension/compression) membrane elements. The beam elements allow modeling of large deflection bending members.
  
Loads are applied incrementally throughout the analysis. During each load increment, MCAP will cycle through as many iterations as requested by the user. Geometry, stress, unbalanced forces, the material stiffness matrix, and geometric stiffness matrix are all updated at each iteration.
  
MCAP has two operation modes: Shape generation mode and analysis mode. Shape generation mode is used to solve for prestressed equilibrium shape of the membrane and/or cablenet structures (i.e. form-finding). Analysis mode is used to perform stress analysis while subjecting the structure to various applied loads.

可否介绍一下，该软件膜的几个操作步骤，给人一个感觉认识！

The program I used to know was not that user-friendly. I haven't got a chance to see the latest version. The operation was tedious then. At least 3DMS was faster than MCM in terms of model-building, if you handle the program skillfully:). I will manage to give a brief description of the basic operations later. Kind of tie-up this week. Sorry.

以下摘自用户手册,  
Typical steps in building a model:
  
(a). Sketch on paper what you are doing and think it out the best you can. Plan where you need key nodes to define the model; define the coordinate system (right hand Cartesian), and; computer the key nodes coordinates. Think about the mesh density you need (always use as coarse a mesh as you can to start with).
  
(b) Enter the key node coordinates in the "Mesh Generator,", then construct your mesh.
  
(c) Define the boundary conditions (D.O.F.'s) and either the prestress forces or the force densities.
  
(d) Perform some preliminary shaping (form-finding) and study the shape.
  
(e) Modify the model as you like in "Edit," "Modify," etc. Change prestress forces as required.
  
(f) Re-shape and study the model
  
(g) Add material and section properties.
  
(h) Save the file, leave MCM, and run your model MCAP for further shaping or checking.
  
(i) Once you are satisfied with your model, set the shape code in the data to 0 (for analysis) and analyze it in MCAP with prestress and dead load forces only. This is done to check the prestress/dead load equilibrium state.
  
(j) Print out the report output file from the MCAP run and check all of your data!
  
(k) Use the "MCM Load Creation" commend to assemble load cases, then go back to MCAP for analysis processing of these files.
  
(l) Write out a DXF file of your model and export it to other software programs, CAD, etc.
  
该程序在DOS环境下运行, 命令输入,图型显示方面显得很原始. 很多人就开发了自己的后处理程序, 加上该程序的既有的有限元分析功能, 总体上讲是一个很强的软件.

听说mcm有6.37和6.79版，你知道的是什么版本，另外BLd_1998是什么东西你知道吗？
作者: 来自香港    时间: 2002-8-30 21:44     标题: 回复： MCM/MCAP软件

我所知道的是6.53版. 现在的版本应已是7.++系列了.不知BLD-1998为何物.

我有几个问题：1。"c"条中定义边界的命令是哪几条，预应力如何定义，步骤是怎样的。
              2。“d"条中在哪条命令下可完成找型
              3。"g"条中加材料和截面性质选哪几条命令，步骤是怎样的。

我认为一个人的购买力相对太小点，难以引起软件商的重视，不如现在组成一个采购团，批量购买，也方便商家的销售和消费者权益的维护，若有兴趣者可请同我联系，我是一个结构师兼自愿律师。

最近，一个美国朋友告诉我，BIRDAIR的分析软件好象是一个叫“BLD3D"而不是MCAP.不知谁了解详情

Can you tell me about the detail of BLD3D software.  
作者: davidchen    时间: 2003-3-13 05:22     标题: 回复： MCM/MCAP软件

There isn't that much that I can tell you. It is a finite element analysis program can incoperate cable element, fabric element with conventional elements.
