Dynamic Modeling for Viscoelastic material using ANSYS

Submitted by parimal_maity on

Hello,

I am planing to model a viscolestic material in ANSYS and condition is dynamic.

Could anyone please suggest what are the essential things (i mean datas) required for modeling a viscoelastic material?

For example, If I do the DMA test of viscoelastic materials i can have the modulus data at different frequencies. How to use those data in ANSYS to find out the stress-strain curve?

Thnaks for your kind help

Hi everyone:

   I am henry, a graduate student in USA. These days, I am trying to make a zero thickness cohesive zone with curvature. After I define this and get everyting set up, then submit the job, the warning windows pop out and tell me the following error messages:

The node numbering might not be correct for element 2010 instance cohesive-1

The node numbering might not be correct for element 2010 instance cohesive-1

The node numbering might not be correct for element 2029 instance cohesive-1

More information about residual stress tester.





The residual stress in a metal do not depend on it hardness, but from the module of elasticity or Young module and from its chemical composition (density).

Hello colleagues,

Iam trying to model load test on board pile. I have already a model which is working but not as I need. I think the interaction between pile and soil is not correctly defined. Has someone an experience with this issue.? How I should define the interaction between soil and pile?

Attached .inp file.

For metals, when will the elastic modulus be changed?

Submitted by flong208 on

I have a question, for the same metal material, when will the elastic modulus will be changed? in another words, in what kind of processing or machine condition will the elastic modulus be changed? for example, to machine elements(gear, bearing ...), when the part surface is case hardened,will the elastic modulus be changed? if not, how can the difference of hardness between case hardened surface and without hardened substrate be reflected in FEM analysis? how can the case hardened surface parameters affect the contact stress when two part are brought to contact?

Structures in fire

Submitted by Emmanuel E. Ufuah on

Hi,

Are there researchers working on specific areas in offshore structures? Or is anyone covering the material behaviour of structures at elevated temperatures? I am indeed challenged to read about excitng contributions from different scholars expecially in structural mechanics. I realise I have just begun a race in research. You could help me gain the proper direction in research.

I shall be glad to get any response.
