I am looking for a good geometric illustration of the consistent tangent tensor (corresponding to a stress update procedure).

The theory is "clear" for me, but sometimes i am confused when i wanted to imagine the illustration of the difference between the consistent tangent and the continuum tangent tensors.

Could someone recommend me a textbook or paper that presents a good schematic illustration ?

Best Regards!

hi friends

i have problem in full transient analysis in ANSYS 11.0

kindly give me solution.

i have data .....

BEAM FOR IMPACT LOAD 

lenth=144 inch 

area=120 sq inch 

moment of inrtia=1000 inch rest to four

depth=10 inch

elastic modulas=3605 kips per sq inch

density of material=8.6805E-5  kips per cubic inch

FOR SOLUTION..(force 23.8 kips is linearly decreases from time = 0 to 0.042 at centre of the beam)

at time = 0 sec , force = -23.8 kips

I want to model moving mass on a simply supported beam in ANSYS but I can not reach to analytical results, I tried defining CPs and some other methods. I want to find a linear solution and I prefer do not enter in Nonlinear analysis.

 I think when a reaction occurs in fluid state. the quantum effects may become important in its simulation. does any body know any thing about quantum effects in fluid mechanics? did any one a multiscale Simulation in this regard. my knowledge is very limited in this regard. please guide me!.

HAI ,

My name is krishna. I am a graduate student working on ansys.My advisor told me to simulate edm tool wear using ansys software. i am trying to get spark produced at the end of the tool .But i am not getting the results.Pls can any by help me with this simulation.

Its very urgent

Thanks

krisna

Hello all,

   I have some stress relaxation data in the form of Stress vs. Time curves for different temperatures. I am planning on using a Prony series in Ansys to do this. Can anyone help with this? Any tips/tricks/references?

Does anyone know of a simple book, approximately 50 pages or so, for plasticity?. I am looking for something that is similar to Morton Gurtin's "Topics in Finite Elasticty" published by SIAM. This book is an uncluttered treatment of finite deformation elasticity and was very useful for me during graduate work. I am NOT looking for 200-300 page texts, becasue I will never get around to reading them.
