Tensile Strenght vs Tensile Stress (of welded specimen)

Submitted by arnkarthik on

Helo everyone,

I did the UTM Tensile testing for my standard specimen and got the stress strain table.

As a result i got the Tensile Strength (in Mpa). 

In abaqus i modeled the standard specimen and created the weld like model.

The plastic material properties (material properties of my Electrode E7018) is given to the weld geometry and

UTM results for the standard specimen, and got the same result for the UTM tested with welded specimen.

the rotational degree of freedom of the reference nodes is not restrained.

i am trying to simulate sheet metal bending.

die and punch were given as analytically ridid body.

the following error occured ,

kindly clarify me regarding this.

A cable bending stick-slip analytical model

Submitted by Alain Cardou on

Single strand cable bending, stick-slip, analytical models require that a choice be made between two contact modes between adjacent wires: either radial (between layers) or lateral (between same layer wires). In most recent models (e.g. Papailiou’s) radial contact is selected. A “lateral contact” model has been presented by Panetti in 1944 and can be found in the proceedings of the Turin Royal Academy of Science. A translated version from Italian is proposed in the attached file.
