Hi all,

     Currently, I am using ANSYS 12.1 for the fatigue crack propagation simulation for the edge crack & center crack plates. It is a mixed mode crack propagation.

Can anybody please tell me or guide me how to write the code in the ANSYS using APDL for automatic remeshing around the cracktip when crack propagates to the new position?

 Thanks in advance. :)

how to model circular heat source and gaussian heat flux in ansys

how do i move circular heat source over a entire plate with time increments?

Thank you

hi gentel man , 

This is ramana , working as FEA analyst in clyde pumps .

I recently downloaded Franc3D software from web. I could able to create and import model to osm and take to franc3d .

I am unable to rub run BES and Run anays. While I am trying to run BES the following error is coming

Failed trying to execute BES file from Franc3D.

anybody can help in this to come out from this problem. This is very urgent for me to submit my research work. Can any body send me Franc 3D oe any suitable fracture analysis software. 

Hi

I order to model the cement board material, i am going to use "Concrete Smeared Cracking" model available in Abaqus. I think I have to adjust some variables affecting the properties of the concrete to get the numerical load-deformation response close to that of the cement board.

I will be thankful if anyone help me.

At present, the concept of effective stress has undergone three periods:

1. Terzaghi's effective stress         

            σeff= σ-p

 2. Biot’s effective stress

              σeff= σ-αp

 3. Double effective stress

Any ideas/references/examples on how to apply cyclic loading in ANSYS?

I am working on plastic behaviour of metal. I am using Abaqus 6.7 for simulation of uniaxial ratcheting of steel under cyclic loading. Modelling and job submission/completion has been done successfully. But I cann't understand  where  the data for Stresses(S) &  number of cycle(N) is strored to draw S-N curve. Please suggest.

Hi,

What is the meaning of hourglass reduced integration used in ABAQUS.

Hourglass stifness?

Reduced Integration?

Thank You very much in advance
