How are principal planes & eigen vectors of the stress tensor related ? | An intuitive explanation

To obtain the principal planes we construct the stress tensor and find the eigen vectors. Here is an attempt to explain it more intuitively rather than the use of the formal mathematical method. Hope you enjoy this video!

STRESS TRIAXIALITY

Dear ALL,

Which reading material/source that describes the good understanding of stress triaxiality?

What is the role of stress triaxiality for FE analyst?

I have read a lot of papers/articles but still have confusing me on the fundamental of stress triaxiality.

How obtain tension strain concrete(σt0) in damaged plasticity model in ABAQUS?

hello engineers

i need help about concrete damaged plasticity

fo example :

if Compressive stress (Fu)= 51.2 MPa

and tension stress (σ t)=0.3 x 51.2^(2/3)=4.136

1)why (σ t) is 2.36 in picture(uploaded)?

2)what is tension strain ? and how? i cant understand.

i cant obtain εt = total tensile strain.

how obtain εcr ?

please help

New Ebook on Elastic Solids at Amazon

This treatise provides a broad overview of the definitions of
fundamental quantities and methods of analysis for the use of solid materials
in structural components. The presentation is limited to the linear elastic
range of material behavior where there is a one to one relationship between
load and displacement.  Fundamental
methods of analysis and typical results for structures made of elastic solid materials
subjected to axial, bending, torsion, thermal, and internal pressure loading;

History of Bueckner’s principle?

I am hoping someone has some historical knowledge of some
interesting mechanics, or just an interest to discuss it. A superposition principle is widely used to solve crack problems, with illustrations like these:

stress at interfacial Guass point

Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica: 

hello,

stress at interfacial Guass point

hello,

     I have encountered a problem to calculate the stress at interfacial Guass point of each hexahedron element. Since the effective stress is needed to decide whether a cohesive element should be inserted when using the extrinsic cohesive element model, the stress at interfacial Guass point of each element is chosen to calculate effective stress. In the calculation process, the stress at Guass point of each hexaderon element can be obtained.Is there anyone who knows how to calculate the interfacial stress accurately? I would appreciate your comments.

ABAQUS CRACK PROPAGATION

how to do a crack propagation analysis?

can abaqus be used for doing crack propagation analysis for plates with multiple cracks?

Stress/strain of a body performing a translation

Hello all,

I am having task to determine the strength analysis (stress/strain) of a translating machine part (body). The part is driven by a set of gears, placed on the top of the body. The input is a constant acceleration value to the propultion engine. Firstly I should do a 2D analysis with a retangle representing the machine part. 

I am new to this subject, so any idea, approach,  advice or helping material is welcomed. 

Thank you in advance!

How to supply a visualization for the displacement gradient tensor

Hi all, 

[Warning: The writing is long, as is usually the case with my posts :)]

It all began with a paper that I proposed for an upcoming conference in India. The extended abstract got accepted, of course, but my work is still in progress, and today I am not sure if I can meet the deadline. So, I may perhaps withdraw it, and then submit a longer version of it to a journal, later.

Mohr's Circle---When Was the Last Time You Used It in Your Professional Engineering Work?

As a consultant in computational mechanics, I currently help write some FEM-related code, and while doing this job, an episode from a recent past came to my mind. Let me go right on to the technical issue, keeping aside the (not so good) particulars of that episode. (In case you are curious: it happened outside of my current job, during a job interview.)

If you are a design engineer, FE analyst, researcher, or any professional dealing with stress analysis in your work, I seek answers to a couple of questions from you:

Writing User Subroutines with ABAQUS

Dear All,

 I think that many students are looking for some tutorials about writing a UMAT in ABAQUS.

You can find a comprehensive tutorial for elastic problems.

This file contains: 

• Motivation

• Steps Required in Writing a UMAT or VUMAT

• UMAT Interface

Examples

Example 1: UMAT for Isotropic Isothermal Elasticity

Example 2: UMAT for Non-Isothermal Elasticity

The Meaning of the Concept of Potential in Mechanics (and in Physics)

If someone knows of books/articles dealing with the meaning of the concept of potential in physics (or concerning the physical bases underlying the energy methods of mechanics) then I would very much appreciate getting to know about these.
