hello to all,
I m new to composite material analysis, I am doing a project for wind turbine analysis in ansys. The wind turbine contains total 96 layers of two different material which is stacked alternatlly. i dont know about the modelling and analysis procedure of composites. i don't understand how to connect the surfaces.
thanking you..............
Dear iMechanica Readers,
Greetings from Oak Ridge.
I would like to invite you, your colleagues and students to attend the annual Educational Symposium organized by the Oak Ridge Chapter of ASM International. The theme for this year’s symposium is:
“Innovations in Mechanical Testing: From Molecules to Large Engineering Structures”
We have an outstanding list of speakers, which includes:
Ian Robertson (NSF) - "In situ TEM testing" (Keynote Speaker)
Hello Everybody,
Does anybody have experience with simulations of indentation in axysymmetrical case, it seems that adaptive meshing doesn't work in ABAQUS Standard.
Best regards
ABAgirl
I am working on a FEM project in which i should import a complicated 3D model to Ansys.
I created The IGES format of the model which the size was 52Mb for the IGES file.The model contains very curvy surfaces and it is complicated.it is created By 3D doctor....
when i import it to ANSYS it doesnt create any volume and i can see only small areas.
now how can i make the model more handy for ansys....also i need to have a volume in order to meshing....
could u please help me to get out through this?
Thanks
Hi,
I am new in ABAQUS. I am trying to find the thermal stresses created by change in temparature of 50'C for lainate consisting of [90/+45/-45/0]s configuration. Eventually what I intend to do is find the stresses under a simple uniaxial load which also consider the change of temperature while calculating the stresses in each ply. I have the material data for the coefficinet of thermal expansion both for longitudinal and trnasverse directions (alpha_11 and alpha_22).
Is there any suggetion of approches I may take.
Many thanks in advane !!!!
Hi everyone
Hi everyone
I need a NASA article and I have few information about how to get access to it. Here is its title and hyperlink.
"Buckling loads of stiffened panels subjected to combined
longitudinal compression and shear: Results obtained with PASCO,
EAL, and STAGS computer programs,TROUD, W J | GREENE, W H | ANDERSON, M S"
anybody please help me to model the weld joint in ansys.or Are there any such tutorial to model such joints?
Dear All,
Recently I have read some literatures on Molecular simulation of polymer. My interest is measurement of
mechanical properties of polymer through the uniaxial tensile test.
I have a question about relatively large time scales in MD simulations of polymer and how to interpret MD
stress-strain results for FE modeling. In particular, in the literature it is mentioned that strain rate of
