FEA modelling with ABAQUS 6.6 of three roller Flow forming process.

Hi

this is Probal from university of western ontario (UWO). I am working on three roller flow forming process and i have to model the deformation specially in the splined area. could you please give me any idea or give any link so that i can have an idea what to do.

thank you probal

Molecular dynamic simulations for carbon nanotubes

When using molecular dynamics simulations to study the variation of buckling strain versus aspect ratio of SWCNTs, is it necessary to keep the strain rate constant or displacement rate constant? Kindly appreciate your comments.

Modeling concrete wrapped CFRP sheet using ANSYS

Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica: 

Hi all

 

I am currently in my Master Degree in Civil Engineering at University of Michigan. I am doing a research on concrete wrapped CFRP sheets and I want to do Finite Element Analysis using ANSYS. I am not able to model concrete in ANSYS. Can anyone please help me out with that.

 

Awaiting the reply....

 

Thank you

How to get a sponsorship in the chemical area?

I have a friend who is studying to be a PHD in the Chemistry area, however, he needs to find new sponsorship to finalize his research, which is about AIDS.

Can anyone give him some ideas?

thanks

Abaqus UEL subroutine help

Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica: 

Greetings to all Imechanicans ! ,

I just started using the scripting interface in Abaqus, and i stumbled into a small issue, I have a sample input file which is a small model for crack simulation and its UEL subroutine, I know how to open the input file  but I don't know how to open the UEL subroutine that goes with it, I get the following error :

The model "projGH" has been created.

Quasi Linear Viscoelasticity vs. Linear Viscoelasticity

Can anyone explain what is main difference between Linear Viscoelasticity vs qlv (Quasi linear Viscoelasticity) proposed by Fung.  As far as I understand stress relaxation function and elastic response functions separated and given in convolution form which provides "strain rate independent" results in qlv application.  

Is linear viscoelastic description is strain dependent?

Hashin damage model for fiber reinforced composite in ABAQUS

Hi Everyone,

I am doing a project in which I am trying to study about the
drilling of composite. The aim is to optimize the drill and process
parameters to minimize the damage. For this I have tried to simulate
the drilling process in ABAQUS and I am using the Hashin damage model.
The problem is that Hashin damage model works only for the lamina which
takes only plane stress elements. Since only plane elements are allowed
I am unable to simulate cutting action of drill as the composite plate
is effectively 2D.

TRANSIENT TEMPERATURE ANALYSIS IN ABAQUS...

Hello freinds

I am facing problems with ABAQUS in doing the transient temperature analysis,and creep analaysis,,

can any one sujjest me about the porcedure step by step in ABAQUS for solving the heat trasfer problems and creep anlyisis rpoblems..

it willl be help ful for me ..please............

and one more question how can i fine online tutorials for ABAQUS 6.1.6

please guide me by sujjestting the solutons for aboove problems..

i am struck with these problems cant able to continue my research...please consider me..

Experimental analysis of prepreg tack

Dear all, I post a study dealing with tack of prepreg materials. This kind of composite materials is increasingly used in the design of structural parts, particularly in the aerospace industry.Tack is one of the major properties that governs the ability of prepreg to be laid up. To investigate this property, we have developed a probe tack test to evaluate the effect of the temperature, the contact time, the contact force and the debonding rate on it.

How to explain the limit load by stiffness matrix using finite element analysis?

I always have a question about the convergence problem: when a structure reaches its maximum load-bearing ability, the solution will end if the newton method is used in the finite element analysis. Then which form the stiffness stiffness in the finite element analysis takes on?  Singular or ill-conditioning?  How to explain the appearance of maximum load by variable stiffness matrix?

Multiscale Modeling and Simulation

Modelling Hyper-elastic Plate Using ABAQUS

Dear All,

For months, I have tried to model a plate with circular hole which has the properties of hyper-elastic material (Ogden) but the results are still not promising compared to literature (Y Basar 1998).  The main problems are:

1. The maximum load I succeeded to apply was q=26, while literature had applied load up to 90. For q > 26, the analysis will terminate with errors such as too many attempt, excessive distortion etc.

2. The results I get for q<26 are not the same as literature. 

I attach my best result for your viewing.

I would like to know the factors that effect the thin film fluid material spreading under Ac votage? is there any equation which relates to viscosity, dielectric constant, bonding etc

Journal Club Theme of April 2009: Mechanobiology and Molecular Mechanomedicine

Professor YC Fung, the widely-recognized father of modern biomechanics, recently challenged the field by asking this fundamental question: “What axioms of the classical continuum mechanics have to be changed for biology?”

Mechanical properties of self-assembled monolayers

Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica: 

I did some preliminary study on free-standing self-assembled monolayer (only 1 nm thick). Bulge test was used to determine the elasticity and residual stress in the membrane. I just took the model from Prof. Vlassak's paper (J mater. Res 7,1992,3242). Althought the model could explain the data very well.

XFEM-structure with openings

Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica: 

IF I have a 2-D slab (plate)  which has some openings - can the XFEM prove advantageous over conventional FEM for such case?That is, can I use enrichment functions around the openings (as around the cracks).
