how to calculate stresses in composite laminate for in plane and out of plane loading conditions, at Gaussian points byFEM (HSDT

Submitted by appagadade on

Hi all

I am a PhD rsearch scollar from SVNIT Surat. 

I am working on Failure analysis of composite by using higher order shear deformation theory. I had written matlab code for FEM.

I got the the results but i am loosing accuracy. Can anyone suuggest me what is the best way to calculate accurate stresses.

What care is to be taken for in plane and out of plane loading conditions.

 

 

Topic 56: How safe is using a Personal Floatation Devices (PFDs) in an offshore platform or Helicopter Travel?

Submitted by victor.adukwu on

Personal Floatation Devices (PFDs) are protective equipments used on an offshore platform location, on the barge, during boat travel, when travelling in a Helicopter or aeroplane, when fire drills or emergency drills are being conducted or any other time deemed necessary by boat captain, supervisor, pusher or pilot. It is also important to note that proper attention has to be paid on the use of thee PDSs. Examples of these PFDs are life preserver, work vest, life buoy, life raft, survival capsules etc

subtract element sets one from enother

Submitted by Liri_veny on

I'm trying to subtract a list of elements one of the other and I'm getting stuck.

I get my sets using the following code:

elemlist1=mdb.models['mesh_for_analysis'].parts['PART-1'].elements.getByBoundingBox(XMin,YMin,ZMin-delta,XMax,YMax,ZMin+delta)

mdb.models['mesh_for_analysis'].parts['PART-1']
.Set(elements=ElemList1, name='Zmin')

AllelemList= mdb.models['mesh_for_analysis'].parts['PART-1'].elements.getByBoundingBox(XMin,YMin,ZMin,XMax,YMax,ZMax)
