Sliding motion simulation

Submitted by xyz_lemon on

Is it possible to simulate the sliding motion between master and slave surfaces and extract the inertia forces exerted by the master surface motion transferred on to the slave surface similar to

 

we have one machine base on which mass will slide with a certain velocity,due to friction between linear motion guides and mass,inertia force will be transmitted to the base,

K value calculation in Ansys

Submitted by Gagandeep Singh on

I am trying to calculate K values for a double tip crack orientated at 45 deg in a rectangular plate in ansys.I am stuck with a strange problem. When i give the Kcal command it says the crack face is not parallel to the active x axis. But i have checked the cordinates of the keypoints that i have used to create the crack. The crack is perfectly symetric about the active cordinate system  about the crack tip.Can somebody help me please.
