Cohesive Zone Meshing in ANSYS

Submitted by chidambar.13 on Fri, 03/05/2010 - 09:25

Hello,

I am trying to simulate crack propagation in ANSYS. I am stucked in Cohesive Zone meshing.

I have gone through all the posts posted here.

I have understood that CZ Meshing is done through command line ANSYS. Even I gave try for it but was unfortunate.

Torsion in Trapezoidal bars

Hi evrey body,

Does anybody have an idea for solving torsion equation for trapezoidal bars? Or any references? For rectangular bars Timoshenko completely did it in in "Theory of Elasticity" pages 309-313, but I could not find any references for trapezoidal cross section.

Best Regards

Dynamic fracture mechanics

Submitted by Cai Shengqiang on Fri, 03/05/2010 - 04:54

Dynamic fracture mechanics is written by a very well known professro-L B Freund. Honestly, I have only read a small part of the book. However, I recommend this book because after reading this book, you can learn many things which haven't be touched in the class, as stated by Zhigang in the beginning of the class.

thermal radiation analysis in ansys workbench 12

Submitted by whyakhan on Thu, 03/04/2010 - 10:15

Hello everybody,

I have been assigned the task of performing thermal analysis of electronic components that involve conduction and radiation only and determine the temperature distribution on them. I am doing this in ansys workbench 12. Since I am doing thermal analysis for the first time so having problems.

Does anybody have tutorials related to performing thermal analysis in ansys workbench. Please share.

Thanks in advance.

Atomistic Modeling of Materials Failure by M. J. Buehler

Submitted by Denvid Lau on Thu, 03/04/2010 - 08:26

This book is an introduction to molecular and atomistic modeling techniques applied to solid deformation and fracture. Focusing on various brittle, ductile and geometrically confined materials, this book includes computational methods at the atomistic scale, and describes how these techniques can be used to model the dynamics of crack, dislocations and other deformation mechanisms.
