Studying the Tensile Behaviour of GLARE Laminates: A Finite Element Modelling Approach

By: Payam Soltani, M. Keikhosravy & R. H. Oskouei & C. Soutis

Abstract:

Numerical simulations based on finite element modelling are increasingly being

developed to accurately evaluate the tensile properties of GLARE (GLAss fibre REinforced

aluminium laminates). In this study, nonlinear tensile behaviour of GLARE Fibre Metal

please help me

how we get the moment diagram from the stress if the ABAQUS is available for shell element

Pls help regarding CoordMp

Dear all,

Pls be informed that I am using abaqus explicit to model my
pipeline that
embedded in soil. In standard, Coord 1 means x co-ordinate,
coord 2 means Y
co-ordinnate and coord 3 means Z -co-ordinate. But I can not
undestand the
meaning of CoordMP(nblock,j) in explicit. I want vertical
co-ordinates of some
elements of my model but if I put CoordMP(k,2) it shows
always a constant value
for all elements which make no sense.

Can you
please explain it(CoordMP)? It will be a great help for me.

How to Assign Initial Solution-dependent State Variable to VUMAT

Hi everyone,

      I just constructed a VUMAT which including 3 state dependent variables ( nstatev =3 ), let say these three state dependent variables each have a initial value of 10, 20 and 30, may I know how to assign these initial values into the simulation or VUMAT?

      So far I follow the manual to assign the initial value via input file with material properties command as below (the line started with "*Initial Conditions" is line 361):

polymer/metal multiscale

Hi,

I am searching on multiscale simulation of polymer/metal ( mechanical propertices).

Cohesive zone model is used for this porpose.

Is there another models that can use for this issue and using MD data as input?

Best regards,

Crystal Plasticity Modelling

Hi all,

     I want to set up a critical shear strain - normal stress criterion, in UMAT by prof. Huang. For the strains it is easy to get a critical strain along a slip plane; but for the stresses the notation is quite weird. It is not the same! See below:

C       Array STATEV:

C       3*NSLPTL+1 - 6*NSLPTL  :  current components of normals to slip

C                                 slip planes

DEM modelling of granular flow

Hi iMechanica,

I want to start a discussion on the current status of DEM modelling of granular media. I know that Luding has published many papers in this area. Please add to the current research on granular flow modelling like viscoplasticity, hypoplasticity etc and the  numerical DEM methods.

Coupled thermo-structural analysis of CFRP using ANSYS

Hi everyone,

 does anyone know publications dealing with the coupled thermo-structural analysis (direct method) of CFRP using ANSYS?

Postprocessing of user elements and user element output in abaqus 6.10

Hi

I have made a user element, UEL of a cohesive zone element. which is a 8 noded brick element with zero thickness. After solving models using this element I would like postprocess the model in abaqus CAE 6.10 in the way that I am able to:

Force integration from CPRESS is not equal to the Normal Load

Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica: 

Dear All,

I am running an axisymmetric model of a parabola tip on rigid surface contact under external load controlled by CLOAD. However, the CPRESS value outputed integraded over the annular areadoesnot equal to theexternal load inputed. The reaction force from the system does though.

I am suspecting that there is shaer component in the numbers given by CPRESS, but CSHEAR are all zero. Could anyone give me a hint on this problem.

 

Thanks a lot,

buckling of CFRP under combine axial compression and torsion loading.

hi,

I have to perform an non-linear buckling analysis over CFRP cylindrical shell in ansys. now i am little bit confuse how to perform this combined loading in ansys.in order to buckle some impurities (pertubation/imperfection ) must be included into the shell as this combine loading is purely in-plane loading case. this impurities i was including by performing a eigen value buckling during pure torsional loading and pure axial compression individually. but this is not much convinient during combine loading.

So my quries are

Multiscale Modeling Consortium

The Multiscale Modeling (MSM ) Consortium has been set up by a an interagency modeling and analysis group (IMAG ) comprised of staff from 17 NIH components, four NSF directorates, two Department of Energy (DOE) components, five Department of Defense (DOD) components, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the United States Department of Veterans Administration(USDVA) to provide a forum for discussion on matters related to MSM research and

Modeling Metal forming in Abaqus...

I'm currently working on my master thesis which is in the area of metal
forming simulation...

I have one question,,, when adding material plasticity in Abaqus using the
power law...

to what limit shall i go in the tabulated form is it to 100% plasticity or
to the maximum strain the material can take...

 in other word,,, if the power law is: σ =250*εp^0.123...

shall i inter the values till at σ=250, ε=1... or shall i stop at let say ε=0.25...

Regards,,,

RECENT DEVELOPEMENTS ON THE USE OF FDM IN ELASTICITY ANALYSIS

Computational field of solid mechanics is mostly dominated by FEM.   This is a well known topic.

But is it that  FDM (finite difference method) has no chance of surviving
in solid mechanics?

What are the present developments in the use of FDM in case of elasticity analysis of solid body?

I would like to mention some of the recent research works on this topic here.....

Recently a new mathematical model has been developed by Prof. S. Reaz Ahmed and his students known as the "displacement potential approach".
