Hi,
I'm Praveen doing my Master of Technology Project. I wanted to know how to model delaminated composites in ANSYS. Whether to use Teflon layer as delamination between the plies or creating air gap between the plies? And also wanted to know how to use cohesive zone elements or interface elements to create delamination. Can anyone help me? I ve attached images for references.

Polarization distributions around an open crack with different electrical boundary conditions in a single crystal ferroelectric are investigated by using a phase field model. The surface effect of polarization is taken into account in the phase field model, which has not been included in previous ferroelectric crack models. The simulation results show that the impermeable crack and the crack filled with air have a significant influence on the polarization distribution, while the permeable and the crack filled with water have little influence.
i am working on ABAQUS, trying to carry out pushover analysis, modeled dam body as well as foundation, can anybody explain me how to carry out pushover analysis of dam ,as well as which interaction is suitable in between dam and foundation interface.
thank you in advance.
Discussion of fracture paper #41 - Are dislocations good or bad guys? It depends!
Around Shifting from macroscopic to microscopic plasticity helps us understand mechanisms that can help us develop high-strength metallic materials. Things that prevent dislocation dynamics or generation, such as other dislocations and grain boundaries in polycrystalline materials, lead to higher strength.t...

Linear Instability Signals the Initiation of Motion of a Twin Plane Under Load
by Chang-Tsan Lu and Kaushik Dayal
Abstract
I have extracted field output from ABAQUS odb file and I want to take log of that field. In ABAUQS scripting manual, in section 9.8.2 it has been mentioned that
log10(field output)= field output
When I am trying to do this compilation gives me error. "a float value required"
Please guide me if i am making any mistake
Also if possible, suggest how can I get rid of this problem?
