New IOSO video tutorial (with SolidWorks, Icem, CFX)
Dear Colleagues,
a new 30 min IOSO video tutorial is available for you on-line: http://vimeo.com/13029874 Step by step Optimization task solution with the aides of DS SolidWorks (parametrizator), ANSYS Icem CFD (mesh processor), ANSYS CFX (CFD software) coupled with IOSO
Subset Splitting Digital Image Correlation (SSDIC)
Following our recent article on this new method, we are making our Matlab routines available. The package contains standard DIC, SSDIC, plus a few extras. More info here
“Subset Splitting Digital Image Correlation” (SSDIC) is based on DIC, but in addition SSDIC can capture displacement discontinuities near shear bands or cracks, where standard DIC fails.
Choice of the analysis for stress relaxation of PBT in real time scale
I am trying to simulate the long term behaviour of the PBT (polybutyelene terephtalate) thermoplastic.
The mesh and initial stress distribution data (after ejection from the mold) were exported from Moldflow commercial program as Abaqus input (*inp) file. By default, I have already got a fist step of the simulation (linear elastic properties of polymer). What I actually need now is to simulate the long-term performance (for example in the interval of hundreds or thousands hours). It means that the real time scale is of the utmost importance for the analysis.
Modeling post-tensioned concrete in ABAQUS
Hi All,
I want to model post-tensioning tendons embedded with concrete structure. Both ends of tendons are anchored. Can anyone inform me what kind of element most suitable to model the tendons and concrete structure in ABAQUS? I tried solid part for both items, yet as the tendon diameter is very small if compared to the concrete dimension, the resulting number of mesh on the concrete structure is very large.
Abaqus question; assigning different temperatures to regions of a domain without causing nodal multiple values.
