Breast simulation: Deformation Map

Submitted by prabhjot.juneja on

Hi,

I want to simulate the deformation of breast under gravity. I
initially have patient's breast images in one position (supine, with
breast falling on the chest). I want to apply gravity loading and
simulate breast image in another position (prone, with breast falling
away from the chest).

I follow the standard path i.e. segment images (supine data),
generate mesh, import the mesh into ABAQUS, apply material properties,
BCs and loads and run the simulation and I get deformed breast mesh
(simulated prone).

Hi,



i need some help in writing the surface mesh in abaqus. i have a wing model, meshed using hexahedral mesh. now what i want is to write the surface element detail on a file, containing the element number and its neighbouring four nodes. for example



12, 2 3 5 6



here 12 is the element number and 2,3,5 & 6 are the corresponding nodes.

I wender about the limitation of the Navier methode for the solution of the probleme of plate " Why is vailable only for simply supported plates " for wiche raison " mathimathicaly or another thing.........?

Fracture mechanics in ABAQUS

Submitted by Dipak Rakshit on

I am new in this forum.I am trying to model Fibre reinfored Polymer

fracture in ABAQUS . But, In website I could not find any example for

that.I have done fracture model for isotropic material such as

Alluminium using Contour Integral.But, for this FRP I am being unable to

model   it.What should be my consideration (different from isotropic)

using this contour integral.I want a tensile matrix cracking or

matrix-fibre interface cracking or fibre cracking. Please help me in

this regard.
