Pre-stress modal analysis in ABAQUS for circular cylindrical shell

Submitted by anishiitk on

Dear all,

I am trying to perform a pre-stress modal analysis of a cylindrical shell in ABAQUS, and I am unable to transfer data from step-1 to step-2. Due to this
results are the same as the modal analysis of the beam without the
static force.

 

Anybody know the solution of this kind of problem, kindely let me know..

Thanking you in advance

Hyperelastic and Viscoelastic material modelling

Mooney-Rivlin Model

I have a doubt regarding the Hyperelastic and Viscoelastic material modelling in ANSYS using Mooney-Rivlin material constants.

ANSYS theory manual says that for large deformation and large strains, the material modelling (i.e. constitutive behaviour) is same for hyperelastic and viscoelastic. Is it so?

Generally,  Mooney-Rivlin material constants are used to model Hyperelastic behaviour (rubber-like materials).

Call for Nominations for the Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty

Award
mecahnics

It is my pleasure to solicit nominations for the "Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty". This award, launched last year, is given annually to rapidly emerging junior faculty who exemplify the creative use and development of mechanics. The intent of the award is to promote the field of mechanics, especially among young researchers. While interdisciplinary work that bridges mechanics with physics, chemistry, biology and other disciplines is encouraged, the ideal awardee will demonstrate clear inspiration from mechanics in his/her research.
