Finite Element Analysis on Concrete Canoe Hull

the rules are fairly flexable...it's really up to the teams to be innovative and push the boundaries a little bit...as far as cdf or fea, I don't know what to do about that right now, that kind of thing is sort of complicated and it requires someone with working knowledge of a program.

Oh..and as far as the polystyrene beads, we started doing that two years ago and now pretty much everyone does it..the next best thing is going to be to get rid of those completely and use different aggregates...really the hardest part is meating the gradation curves while still trying to maintain a very light mix.
