Hi,
I would like to model a microstructure using Abaqus. My question is how to deal with the grain boundaries ? Should I use cohesive elements ? Any ideas on modeling grain boundaries using FEM will be very helpfull.
Thanks,
Ayoub
Hi all
I am phd student and working on aluminium alloy 2214. i wanted to know if anyone here has experience of FE modelling of inclusions present in alloys by Ansys? i have characterized my material n i know inclusion distribution n size. can anyone help me in this regard?
Merci en avance
i have relations for tensile and bending stress in a rectangular plate due to a central surface crack for a constant thickness plate . i need to have these relations for a varying thickness plate . can any body help.
In this paper we formulate a geometric theory of thermal stresses.
Given a temperature distribution, we associate a Riemannian
material manifold to the body, with a metric that explicitly
depends on the temperature distribution. A change of temperature
corresponds to a change of the material metric. In this sense, a
temperature change is a concrete example of the so-called
referential evolutions. We also make a concrete connection between
our geometric point of view and the multiplicative decomposition
Can anyone help point me to publicly-available fatigue or fracture test data? I am interested in obtaining a variety of data for statistical processing. It seems many authors have used the data collected by Virkler and Hillberry which seems to be widely used, but I have not found raw data for their tests so far; is this data available somewhere for me to use? Any help is very appreciated.
Dear Sir/Madam,
i m quite new wd the ansys and was trying to simulate a problem of moving heat source in GMAW and has to move wd some Heat flux on the plate .how could i model heat distribution of the GMAW and how could i move it wd some velocity..
i hope i m clear,plz help me out.
Thank You,

Hi there
pleas help me with an example explaining how to use matlab code in determining crack growth rate
thank you
Welcome to the forum! Discussion topics were suggested initially as follow:
Metal foams, cell deformation (bending, buckling, plasticity and fracture), constitutive stress-strain behaviour of cellular materials, energy absorption, hypervelocity impact, shock wave behaviour, 1D shock modelling, shock attenuation, shock enhancement, Material Point Method (MPM) simulation and microscopic tomography experimental observation;
and later were extended to many related:
Hello,
i just started reading Meshfree and will love to see a matlab code for it,may be for a simple Poisson Eqn.
To serve as a guide.
Thank you
Dear all,
I'm new in imechanica. I need some informations about VUMAT for Nitinol. I would like to implement in fortran a subroutine for the behaviour of shape memory alloy.I looked for some subroutines already implemented but they have been developed in the implicit way.
It's true that with the VUMAT(explicit) I could have some problems of stability and convergence.Could someone suggest me any reason to make this model in the VUMAT?I know that in VUMAT I can't redifine the time increment so before running the analysis It's important to pay attention on Dt.
