Cohesive modelling

Submitted by dnjadhav on

How to decide the parameter like cohesive strength (normal/tangential) for CZM analysis.

If 8mm thick CT specimen without side groove is used to obtain the experimental Load- LLD data. Which specimen should be used to obtain the cohesive strength.

Abaqus FE inputs

Submitted by yogeshtv on

Dear All,

I'm trying to do creep analysis of thermoplastic in abaqus. just i want know the what are all the FE input required for creep analysis for abaqus(also how to get those data). Please who are worked on creep requested to share the information and its usefull for everyone.

Thanks and Regards

ABAQUS : Programing Sandwich plate with Complex Shear modulus core

Submitted by chlif_med on

Hello;

To study the vibration of a sandwich plate I evaluate the complex shear modulus with the GHM method.

Can you tell me how I can enter the complex shear modulus in ABAQUS:

Gv := 0.142*((w/(2*Pi))^0.494)*(1+1.46*I)*1e6 

(I^2=-1 , w =2*Pi*f  , f: frequency)



Greetings

material deposition to substrate simulation at ABAQUS

Submitted by emrecan88 on

Hi;

I am trying to simulate material deposition to substrate. In our case material is added to substrate  and there is a distributed heat flux with constant velocity acting by node by node. I want to simulate showing the added material in the simulation and its effects. There is a command for that called Model Change in the ABAQUS. So is someone familiar to that kind of problem. And also I need to account mass diffusivity while the material is melting.

I will be gratefull for any advice you can spare

Best Thanks
