About experimentl methods for observing the anisotropic plastic behavior of FCC alloy

Submitted by Peichen1573 on
anisotropic plasticity

I'm doing a research on anisotropic yield criteria for a FCC alloy and I have to do biaxial tensile experiments to get the yield locus in the biaxial stress space.I have two kinds of samples: 

         1. metal sheet with dimensions of 150mm x 70mm x 15mm(thickness); 

         2. rod with diameter of 20mm and length of 150mm.

Dear Sir,

 

Interfacial Fracture

Submitted by Zhigang Suo on
fracture mechanics
ES 247
Spring 2010

These notes belong to a course on fracture mechanics

A body consists of two materials bonded at an interface. On the interface there is a crack. The body is subject to a load, causing the two faces of the crack to open and slide relative to each other. When the load reaches a critical level, the crack either extends along the interface, or kinks out of the interface.

Dear alls,

 I am intersting in computational mechanics and now post some references which relate to ansys.

May be you know command KSCON, which is use for make concentration mesh at crack tip. I known how to use this command but very intersting its Ansys APDL code. So I am looking Ansys APDL code for KSCON command. If anybody know code fot that command, could you please send me?

Thank you.

how to simulate water in between tire and pavement

Hello all,

I want to model hydroplaning problem in abaqus. how to simulate water component in between tire and a pavement in abaqus.

I want to use either Coupled-Eulerian-Lagrangian algorithm or Aribitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian algorithm at the contact patch but i could find any one of these features in abaqus.

Please tell me in detail, if any one has done this problem in abaqus.

Thanks a lot
