3D crack modeling using CTMOPT macro in ANSYS

Submitted by Ashish Joshi on

Hello everyone,

I need to create a semi-elliptical surface crack in a cylinder using ANSYS. CTMOPT macro allows modeling and meshing of this type of crack, but I am struggling to get this. If anyone knows detailed information regarding this, kindly let me know.

 

Thanking you,

Ashish Joshi

Need softwares that can Model Multilayer Thin Film Coatings

Submitted by SudhirBrahmandam on

Hi,

 I want to know what are some useful softwares in which I can simulate multilayer coatings in terms of thermal (CTE mismatch) stresses, and stresses due to contact type loading. I am looking for softwares that are easy to use by a person like me who has an experimental background, does not have exposure to using Abaqus, but can use softwares like Matlab.

 Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Regards,

Sudhir
