Analisys high cycle fatigue(HCF) in Abaqus

Submitted by milad nikfam on

Hello all...
I want to study ''fatigue crack growth'' in Abaqus...I need your help...Could anybody help me about this problem??
I need to know, what is the XFEM Abaqus out put for fracture mechanic??I meen does it give SIF,N(fatigue life) and the crack path??I read Abaqus documentation, it has said that Abaqus can do low cycle fatigue,Can I use it for HCF?? do I need to write a code or subroutine??
Thank you

Seek program or software for 3d crack propagation in soft tissue

Submitted by Wang Lei on

Dear all,

I am looking for a program or software, which allow me to have a quick example for demostrating 3d crack propagation in soft tissue. Can someone share your suggestion on that? At the same time, some references related are also appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance. 

Best wishes,

Hi guys,

I am all new user to deform 3d. from the past month i managed to learn a bit of that. now i can deform a sheet into a cup using a punch and die set. problem is there are wrinkles on the cup. how to apply blank holder force. Can any body explain in detail. plz help me so that i can finish my project.

MAXPS Damage

Hi everbody,

 

I am trying to study about carck propagation in a material. The part is 2D deformable and I am going with XFEM for the analysis. 

Can you please tell me how to calculate the MAXPS damage under Damage for Traction Laws?

 

Elastic Modulus of the material: 0.031 (Newton per micrometer square)

Load: 0.15 um displacement in the 'x' direction = 1.2245e-3 N in the x direction

 

I am using Abaqus /CAE 6.10

 

Any kind of help will be appreciated.

 

Thanks
