Sheet Metal forming simulation (Spinning)

Submitted by svmohammadi on

Hi there

I started to
work with Abaqus and I want to simulate spinning process. In this process I
need to rotate rigid mandrel and holder along with a deformable sheet. Sheet is
held between mandrel and holder in the simulation and they all rotate with the
same rotational speed. I used Abaqus-Explicit to model this process. I faced
several problems which I mention when I use a solid sheet (not shell):

Third African Conference on Computational Mechanics

Submitted by mac on

It is our pleasure to inform you about the Third African Conference on Computational Mechanics, which will take place in Livingstone, Zambia between 30 July and 2 August 2013. The conference is held under the auspices of the IACM, ECCOMAS, and SAAM. Please refer to www.africomp.com for further details.

Should continuum be an open subset?

Submitted by hillyuan on

I recent read the book of Prof. J. Tinsley Oden "A short course on nonlinear continuum mechanics"

 http://users.ices.utexas.edu/~arbogast/cam397/oden0908.pdf

 which declares that reference configuration is an open, bounded, connected subset  of R3 with a smooth boundary (in Page 1).

It is strange to me beacause that means we cannot consider the boundary of the deformable bodies in its following discussion.

does anybody have the abaqus seminar pdf ''modelling heat transfer and thermal-stress analysis with abaqus'' ???

does anybody have  the abaqus seminar pdf ''modelling heat transfer and thermal-stress analysis with abaqus'' ???

 perhaps an older version...i d like learn it, hope u guys can help me, thank u very much.

if u have the pdf file, please give a freelink with dropbox or sth alke, or send me direct to zsc13810288137 [at] hotmail.com

failure analysis of composite material

Submitted by stkrajan on

hi i am new to abaqus software.  i am doing research on failure analysis of composite material.  i want to model the workpiece and machine by a tool.  any one can please help me if you have any tutorial to model this explicit analysis.  i want to analyse the chip also.

please send the help link to stkrajan [at] gmail.com (stkrajan[at]gmail[dot]com)

thankyou

with regards

2013 ASME IMECE Symposium on Multiphysics Simulations and Experiments for Solids (topic 10-33), Nov.15-21, San Diego, CA.

Submitted by dongqian on

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the co-organizers, I would like to invite you to submit an abstract to the symposium on Multiphysics Simulations and Experiments for Solids as part of the upcoming 2013 ASME IMECE conference to be held at San Diego, CA from November 15-21. This symposium is a continuation of the previous symposia that have been successfully organized in the previous ASME IMECE conferences.
