Hi,
I have solved a simulation in Ansys APDL. Its a bending simulation. A model holded on a support , then subjected to bending.
On the support contact region, i have extracted the nodal forces (Structural forces [F] on the out of plane direction [Y] )
Now, i have a list of nodes and their...
HI all,
I would like to know in which cases, we should consider looking into Principal stresses and IN which case, we should look into Normal stress ?
An example illustration would be very helpful.

Hi all,
Coordinate system : x,y are in-plane direction. z is the out-of-plane axis (vertical axis)
How to provide the boundary condition (constraining) for a full model , which is unsymmetric ? Which nodes to fix ?
For example :
For Quarter symmetry model : One node is fixed in x,y,z...
Hi Assafwei,
It was a great reply. Thankyou very much. Do you see any possible tutorial for the steps you have mentioned? I know it cannot be exactly same steps but any similar tutorial, could you recommend me? thanks again
Dear all,
I am currently working in LS DYNA to do an impact simulation. Physically it's like droplet impingement on a solid plate. I do not know how to create a solid box with finer mesh at the centre of droplet impact and in other areas of solid box, a coarse mesh. I want to create this...
Hi,
This might be a basic question for your level. I was asked to draw rheological models like kelvin voigt / maxwell model
in the microsoft word instead of just copying and pasting.
I searched some but i was unable to find what I should be doing to draw a spring and a Damper (dashpot) and...
Additional information :
Since, I work with large number of values (row wise) in Excel sheet in a single column , I want to multiply every 10 values in column1 with a factor , then next 10 values in column1 with an another factor And SO ON . I want to do this in a loop.
...a new array for column_2 of the excel file, assign an array "d"
(vi) plot array "c" vs "d"
What I did ?
data=xlsread('book');
a=data(1:3,1)*2;
b=data(4:6,1)*3;
c=[a;b];
d=data(:,2);
plot(c,d)
What I wish to do ?
How to implement a loop to automate this process instead of writing...
HI,
I am trying to learn to work on MATLAB by accessing the numerical data from an excel file. Kindly add your expert opinion.
For example :
in an excel file named "data.xls" , I have three columns:
Column1 Column2 Column3
0.1 1000 20.05
0.2 1250...
Hi,
I have some simulation to be run with changing (trial and error ) one parameter. First, i try with the one value and run in a ANSYS Batch mode. Then , I check results. Again, i change that parameter , then run for the second time same simulation with the new value for that parameter.
My...
Hi,
I have done a crack propagation simulation in abaqus through XFEM. There are two parts bonded together. A zone of crack/damage is created near the bonded area of two parts. The simulation ran properly and the crack propagates.
Now , i would like to check the graph between the crack...
Hi,
I am in need of references of books to learn about the Failure / Damage modeling with the application of it in the Finite Element Analysis. I would like to know about the recommended books or any other sites/articles etc ...,
thanks

...are such a way that X and Z coordinates are totally constrained. the is applied on the y-direction.
My doubt is : say for the model dimension (10*5*10) , i get MISES value for a particular element (say central element) as 240.
Now, I change the model dimension as (12*5*12) and i get...
...is, " Is that possible to find the possible biggest model size above which the MISES stress is constant ? ".
Say for example, when area is (10*25) and the mises result shows 234.78
Then, i increase the area and check the mises stress (it changes accordingly). Is it possible that above...
Hi all,
I installed abaqus 6.11 . I am not sure what wrong i made or some thing missed during the installation. When i tried to refer the online browsing manual for help (i.e) Help ---> Search & Browse Manuals ... , I get a message window stating "Abaqus documentation collection could not be...
Hi all,
What is the procedure to get the final mass of the model after running a simulation of erosion type in abaqus ? like in (.dat), we get the initial mass of the model as :
TOTAL MASS OF MODEL
2.4354001E-11
But after using the EVOL output, it was found that the...
