Compatibility: Surface-Based Cohesive Behavior in UEL

Submitted by Lucy_E on

Hi all,

 

I have been trying to model the surface interaction between two blocks of material using surface-based cohesive elements (*cohesive behavior). This works well in ABAQUS CAE (standard) when I set the material properties as "Mechanical, Elastic" so no problem with that.

However, I would now like to use the material properties from a fortran code. To do this, I was planning on defining the elements using *UEL with an overlay to record all the values. Is this compatible with cohesive zone elements? 

 

Questions about tensors and matrices

Hello,

I am having questions with tensors. I know that not all matrices are tensor. Tensor is a homogeneous, linear and vector valued function. So my questions are:

 

  1. Are all 3*3 matrices tensors?
  2. Are all anisymmetric second order tensors orthogonal?
Thanks.

 

Analysis problem on ansys 14.5

Submitted by Nagarjun Singh on

I am a student using ansys for solve problems but i have a problem "how to find at which force value the component will be fail". A ball has to pass through a cone and i am intrested to know that force value at which boll will be pass through cone nerrow section while boll diameter is large than small dia of cone.

 

Plz help me anyone ansys masters

Thanks dear frnd & sir...
