Examples Manual for Program MAVART
Abstract
MAVART is a two-dimensional, dynamic finite-element code developed for DREA under research contracts to Canadian industry. It has been developed primarily for analysis of axisymmetric electroacoustic transducers, and the name is an acronym for the code's function, that is, a Model to Analyze the Vibrations and Acoustic Radiation of Transducers. It was first implemented in 1976, under a contract with Acres Consulting Services, Niagara Falls, Ontario. It has been revised and improved a number of times over the years, the latest version (MAVART9 - 1989) resulting from a contract with Ortech International, Mississauga. The main revision introduced in MAVART9 is the installation of the Waterloo University's SPARSPAK solver package, replacing the profile solver used in the previous version. Other new features are the addition of torsional analysis capability and the ability to conduct a resonance search on any specified degree-of-freedom.
