Hi

I am pursuing Master of Technilogy at Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur (India) in mechanical department. Currently, I am working at dynamic buckling of thin walled circular cylindrical shell under uniform radial pressure.  I want to go for PhD, if anywhere , anyone working at plate and shell theory and nonlinear dynamics and vibration and solid mechanics. Then please let me know. I will be thanksfull to you.

Hi forum members i want to model any composite materials in ansys software. For modeling a composite material in ansys what are the elements i should choose and the material properties i should give for the composite. Please help me. Thanks.

hi my friends,

could you please tell me step by step how can i :-

1- define rigid body

2- make contact between rigid  and deformable body

thanks alot

best regards,

I am working on shot peening using FEA. How to use matlab program in order to automatically mesh the sphere in Ansys?

Dear all

I have a plate model in ANSYS.

How can I apply a certain rotation on a line or on a surface in ANSYS ?

 (i.e. ROTZ=1.0)

I am working on my M.s.a thesis about Numerical simulation of fatigue strenght of resistance spot welding joints of coated thin.At first I need to model a  steel palte with three different coating on it and apply a thermal analysis to achive to residual stress distribution.I couldent find any journal or paper in this field and dont know  from where i should exactly start my simulation in ANSYS.can you help me? 

Thanks

Hello all

 I am trying to model a composite material with different tension and compression modulus (elastic analysis).  Does anyone know how to do it ??

Thanks for help.

Hello,

I have a multiple part question:

Backgroud to Q#1& Q#2  My interest is in the full stress distribution through the cross section of a helical coil compression spring, including the effects of curvature that are often cited by Wahl, but reported only for maximum stress at the surface.  The coil is simple - constant wire diameter, coil diameter, and pitch.  I have been unable to come across the solution for the full stress distribution (analytical), although there are endless references to Wahl's correction factor for the maximum stress.
