Confusion in ls-dyna
Recently, I has been analyzing the
WANG_NEFSKE model of airbag.There is a keyword named C23, which is defined as
Vent orifice coefficient in LS-DYNA manual. How can I determine the magnitude
of it? Is there any references I can refer to? I hope you reply!
Thanks
Viscoelastic & Viscoplastic Behaviour of flex printed circuit boards under bending loads
Hello,
I am currently working on my M.Sc Thesis project of fatigue lifcycle of Flex printed circuit boards which is composite material of Polymer & Metal.Want some help who has worked on this topic which deals with Viscoelastic & Plastic behaviour of materials under action of pure bending loads.Help & Guidance would be appreciated.Need to come up with an equation which has stress & strain relating to lifecycle of Flex printed circuit boards.
Awaiting your reply,
Regards,
Nishant

Ping!
I heard a sound in my email Inbox. It was from the editor-in-chief of Elsevier's Engineering Failure Analysis journal. I opened the email and read that my paper was accepted to be published under some conditions for revisions per peer reviewer's comments.

How can i simulate failure and damage progressive in composite materilas using abaqus
I am new in using abaqus, please can any one help me with tutorials, book or anything that guide me on how to simulate failure and damage progressive in composite materials using abaqus.
Thanks you all
Temperature growing Riks step ABAQUS
Hi all
I am modeling a truss in fire conditions, using ISO 835 fire for it. Now I have included some imperfections on the braces(L/1000) and I would like to know how to run this type of analysis(RIKS)
I used normally two steps, one to define the load on my truss and the second to import the temperatures as a predefined field. At this moment I do not know ho to modify my model steps in order to reach the solution. My temperature analysis takes 30 min and I cannot add time to a riks analysis
