Applying heat flux for a specific amount of time using ANSYS
Hi everyone,
how can I apply a 'X' amount of heat flus for a specific amount of time? It'll be helpful to include the steps especially for the part on specifying the amount of injection time (say 3 micro seconds)
Thanks!!
Find arrest time of crack by using strain gages
I have experiment by using strain gages series which mounted along crack path propagation direction, I can find exactly the initatial time of crack but not know how to find arrest time of crack. Crack tip stops between 2 strain gages and the signal of them can be got. Following is the Figure of strain gage mounted on specimen.
The J integral
For a crack in an elastic body subject to a load, the elastic energy stored in the body is a function of two independent variables: the displacement of the load, and the area of the crack. The energy release rate is defined by the partial derivative of the elastic energy of the body with respect to the area of the crack.
Analytic Vs Experimental Solution for a simple beam experiment
Dear Abaqus Users.
Can anyone pleasehelp me regarding the solution of a simple beam experiment.
I am trying to findthe tip displacement of a cantilever beam and compare the outputs with"Analytic solution" to confirm FE results.
The assumptions thatI am following are:
Length=200mm
Width=20mm
Depth/Thickness=25mm
Force/Load = 100N(concentrated force)
E=209.E3
Poisson's ratio=0.3
Number of elementsused for meshing = 29
Types of elements Iam using for Cantilever beam are:
C3D4
