cutting for an aeronautic aluminium alloy(A2024-T351)

Submitted by rachid83 on

Hello every body,

I am working on the simulation of cutting for aluminium alloy (A2024-T351) in abaqus, i use Johnson cook model

I want to introduce several critical values ​​of damage (D1=0.1and D2=0.1,0.5,0.7), how can i do that in abaqus CAE

IF anyone would please help me  

Piezoelectric Actuator Position Constraint

Submitted by mhdiab on
Hey,



I am trying to mount a piezoelectric actuator(PZT) on a plate. The PZT is rectangular and I have created a tie constraint between a surface on the bar and one of the PZT's surfaces. How do I put the PZT at a certain location on the bar in the assembly? I am assigning a coincident point position constraint between a point on the bar and a point on the PZT, is that sufficient? Thank you.



Regards.

Submitted by hgomez on

Job

A full-time post-doctoral position is available within the ERC Starting Grant Project MuSIC -- Modeling and Simulation of Cancer Growth, which is led by Prof. Hector Gomez. The general goal of the project is to develop biophysical models to predict cancer growth.

Requirements

The successful applicant will have a strong background on Medical Image Processing and the Finite Element Method or, preferably Isogeometric Analysis. Knowledge about the biology of cancer, and cancer modeling is desirable.

UEL

Submitted by jayendiran on

I have written a UEL subroutine in fortran for 3D structural element, If i give displacement in Z direction i am able to get the reaction force. if  i give external load in -Z direction and +Z is constrained,  i am able to get the displcement in -Z direction  but it shows the reaction force as zero in +Z surface.Please help me in tis regard how to give load in abaqus input file

Thanks

material model for glass machining

Submitted by farzad pashmforoush on

Hello every body

I am working on the simulation of micromachining of “glass” in abaqus.
Although the glass is brittle, it shows some plasticity in micromachining
because of the high hydrostatic pressure field present in the machining region.
Now I am looking for an appropriate material model for glass with
elasto-plastic behavior which allows element deletion. I am not sure if "johnson-Holmquist damage model" is suitable for machining simualtion or not? I would be very thankful
if anyone would please help me.

With best regards

Romania
 
This country is indeed placed at the crossroad of Central Europe (Mittel Europa).
Transylvania (Brasov, Timisoara) was in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The
Kingdom of Romania was created in 1859, and became independent of the
Ottoman Empire in 1877. Present day Romania is a sovereign country of nearly
20 millions of inhabitants. Somewhat as a gross simplification, we could say that it
is a ‘‘Danubian’’ country with a Latin language, which is surrounded by countries
