help on ansys workbench with composite material
HI
I want to know how can I model a layered composite material(e.g. FRP or GRP) in ansys work bench 11? how can i define the material?

Abaqus SE problem
Just attended a FEMA introduction course put on by my provincial engineering assoc. We all received a copy of Abaqus Student Edition.
When I install the program on my Toshiba Windows Vista laptop the installation completes but when I start the program and try to draw a part instead of getting a blue grid I get a second white drawing sheet overlaying the first.I have tried numerous installs and have all the latest Vista upgrades. My copy of the DVD is good because the program works on my desktop computer.
Ansys - Concrete nonlinear beam
Hello,
I have to model with the Ansys software a beam in concrete material. It must be non linear.
In materials properties, I can choose Materials models - Structural - nonlinear - inelastic - non metal plasticity - concrete.
I put the Elastic Modulus, the Poisson´ratio, the uniaxial cracking stress and the uniaxial crushing stress. But I don´t know how I can enter the values of the strain at fc (compressive cylinder strength) and the value of the fracture energy.
ABAQUS/CAE plots values with discontinuous edges/nodes

The plot is showing a value typically obtained at the integrations points (in this case a single integration point).
Normally you would make a plot like this by taking the mean value of the surrounding elements to each node, then making a interpolated plot like this. However, it is obvious this is not the case around the red node, as it has several different values in the same node.
Abaqus CAE
I intend to create a
composite model, containing a cylindrical fiber surrounded by a cube, by Abaqus CAE v 6.7-1. I create
two separet parts, one for the cube and the other one for the cylinder. Then, I
cut the cube by the fiber; the third part (lets say the cut part) is created
automatically. Now, I need to mesh the parts and merge them.
Loading X, Y, and strain data from multiple files in Tecplot 360
Dear All
I am using tecplot to visualize my data. Now I came across a problem as I have three files (created using Matlab). Each file is having a big matrix having data. One file is having X coordiates, second one is having Y coordinates and third one is having the strain data of these two coordinates. I like to import and plot contour using this data. It will be nice if some one can guide me in this matter.

Hello all friends here:
I want to ask a question:
"How to deactivate solidworks2008 license in one PC and then transfer to another PC? Are there any instruction I could follow?"
If some friends know how to do this, could you please do me a favor?
Highly appreciate.

weld simulation
hi every body
nice to meet all of u
i am a metallurgical engineering. and recently i am trying welding residual stress simulation using abaqus .
i
have some problem .i think i should set a thermal history for the material
witch is welded in simulation. i want to know how can i set a temperature
dependant properties like tensile stress or yield stress and ...
Compiling and Building TAUCS a library of sparse linear solvers
I would like to share the following information to all the iMechanica users interested in using TAUCS a library of sparse linear solvers. TAUCS is among the most used libraries of sparse linear solvers and, to my knowledge, its closest equivalent library is SuperLU. For your reference, TAUCS is used in the commercial software Mathematica by Wolfram Research. Its source code can be downloaded from
