Hi,
I want to model an Aluminum substrate with coating on it. Is there someone who knows how can I define the attachment of intersection in ABAQUS?
Thank you in advance.
Looking for Papers
Dear all
I am looking for some papers about hygrothermal effect in composite plates.
some of these are here:
Beam Equation
How can we derive dynamic beam equation from navier equation in elastodynamic? I tried with the displacement vector field:
u=-z*w(x,t)
v=0
w=w(x.t)
and put it in navier equation, but it does not work.
Dynamic Analysis of Tank filled with Fluid
hi all,
i want to perform dynamic analysis of a tank filled with fluid. I was trying to model this in ANSYS with FLUID80 element for fluid and shell element for the shell. But due to complexity, i was forced to used degenerated solid element, which FLUID80 does not allow.
please tell me any other way to model it.

How to model helical spring in ansys
Hello All,
I am modeling helical spring wounded on the surface of cylindrical shell. High aspect ratio of helical wire creates problem in meshing. please help me in selecting the element and meshing.
Thanks

Continuity of traction vector
I am looking for a source which has a good explanation of the pill box argument to prove continuity of the traction vector. If you know of such a source (url, book etc) please let me know.
Thanks,
