I am conducting a senior design project in ANSYS. I am modeling a folded reinforced concrete plate and have never used ansys before. Does anyone have any tutorials that involve non-linear analysis? I am trying to get a force vs. deflection curve and I am having troubles.
Thanks
Hi all
I want to know about Geometric Stiffness Matrix. When we calculate the stiffness of a body when the body is deformed then the stiffness called geometric stiffness. I have refered few books but I could not get the satisfactory details. I want to find the geometric stiffness of a fluid. I dont have any idea about geometric stiffnes. Any reference for this? Any article which explains this?

Hi everyone,
how can I apply a 'X' amount of heat flus for a specific amount of time? It'll be helpful to include the steps especially for the part on specifying the amount of injection time (say 3 micro seconds)
Thanks!!
HI EVERYBODY,
I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO DO THE THERMAL ANALYSIS OF WELDS COUPLED WITH THE MECHANICAL ANALYSIS TO DETERMINE THE RESIDUAL STRESSES RESULTING IN IT.I HAVE COUPLE OF DOUBTS IN THIS CONCERN-
1.THERE IS THE USE OF FILLER MATERIAL-I KNOW ELEMENT DEATH AND BIRTH METHOD IS TO BE USED BEHIND IT,BUT DONT KNOW HOW TO APPLY IT
2.SECONDLY THE MOVING HEAT SOURCE-WHETHER ANY GAUSSIAN DISTRIBUTION IS TO APPLIED AND HOW TO GET A MOVING HEAT SOURCE.
3.WHETHER ALL CONVECTIVE AND RADIATIVE BOUNDARY CONDITIONS HAVE TO BE APPLIED ON OTHER SURFACES SIMULTANEOUSLY.
Hi every body,I'm a senior student in mechanics and really I need an
example of wave propagation in a thin plate to conduct my project. At
now,main problem for me is how to apply load to get answers with
obvious wave propagtion contour plot without any thing more in just one
refelection.
Thanks in advance,

Hi:
I was trying to model two beam. One is a cantiliver beam with horizontal axis and another one is beam like vertical axis rigid body. When I apply load to the 1st beam it should bend but should not exceed the rigid body. Buy in my model the 1st beam completly ignore the rigid body when deform. I am using Aabqus cae 6.9.
Anyone has any suggestion or tips , please let me kmow.
Thanks
Is there a way to define a materials damping properties in Abaqus FEA if all I know is the tan delta value? Please let me know. Thanks.

This book is in line with what Zhigang is teaching in class. Because Kejie and Widusha have already recommended this book, I would like to introduce you some other books as well as a different approach to cracks and Fracture Mechanics.
