Hi guys,
Does anybody know a good source of creep and fatigue properties for carbon and glass composites? Preferably, at ply level, at different orientations and stress ratios.
I've only been able to found information in some papers, but very dispersed and not of much engineering value.
Many...
Hello everybody,
I have been doing so many simulations for pipes lately that I decided to create a very simple plugin for Abaqus to create 1/4 section models. I didn't have any experience or knowledge building scripts for Abaqus but with the manual, the *.rpy file and a bit of imagination I got...
Hello everyone,
I have been assigned the task of designing a propeller shaft for a truck, one of the requirements is to avoid the phenomenon of whirling. This is a new topic for me, so I will summarise what I believe I know until now:
- At certain critical speeds, the elastic deflection of the...
