Dear Colleagues,
The 52nd Annual Technical Meeting of the Society of Engineering Science will be hosted by Texas A&M University during October 26-28, 2015. As part of this meeting, we are organizing a mini-symposium to address recent experimental, computational, theoretical, and manufacturing advances on the mechanics and physics of soft materials. Topics of particular interest include:
hi ,
How to vary strain rate in abaqus explicit in tensile test simulation.
i know the expression in tensile test that strain rate = velocity / gauge length, but how can m decide the step time.
for example ifthe strain rate is 100 sec-1, and gauge length is 25 mm thn the velocity is 1.66*e-5 m/s. so what is the step time in this case................
any body tell me the relation between strain rate and step time.
thanks in advance
