CONTINUITY AND CHANGE

Submitted by SHIH Choon Fong on

I want to share with you my intention to step down as president of KAUST at the end of my term in November next year.  My President’s Circular announcing this to the KAUST community was sent this morning.  A global search for my successor will be initiated shortly, and until the next president comes on board, I shall continue to serve. 

ansys mechanical apdl on non linear material model

Submitted by preet on

hi....i m working on ansys(mehanical apdl).....here i m doing non linear material model analysis of a two panel slab....i have chosen material model 1 as multilinear elastic and entered the graph in that and took material no.2 for steel with EX=2E8,PR=.33....units are in SI.....NOW I m getting the warning as"For material 1 at temperature 0 has a tangent slope of its stress strain curve <75000> greater than EX <6.0134717-154>..............can anyone suggest some solution for this....

Layered Shell Displacements

Submitted by osmias on

Hi,

I am confused regarding displacements calculated through layered shell model in Ansys using Shell 181.

The model is composed of 5 layered sections of different materials (with thicknesses) assigned to an area. The whole laminate is cooled from a reference (zero-strain) (150 C) temperature to a uniform temperature (-40 C).

I need to calculate the difference of displacements between two nodes in the meshed area, for a specific location in layer no. 3. The issue is that I only have nodes in one plane and the results (i think) are interpolated along the thickness. My question is that, is there any method to find displacements at a specific layer in the shell model [as we can find all other results (stress, strains etc.) for different layers]

ENF Model in Abaqus

Submitted by jayhars on

Hi Everyone,

                 I am new to abaqus and I am modeling an ENF specimen in abaqus..I am trying to find some tutorials relating to ENF specimen model in internet but i couldn't find one till now..If any one having the experience of modeling ENF specimen in abaqus kindly help me by providing some of the materials regarding this.

gradient of deformation in skeletal muscle

Submitted by farhadmir on

Dear All

My thesis is about finite elment modeling of skeletal muscle in which I should calculate gradient of deformation incrementally in ABAQUS subroutine "UMAT".

However,for starting the code to perform having initial deformation gradient is essential. I don't know how to start the program.

Would anyone familiar with this field help me or introduce any reference.
