Hi everyone,
I am quite new to the world of ANSYS APDL and FEA so don't have much experience. I am trying to conduct a contact analysis of a polumer coated piston pushed against a cylinder wall. I have created a simple 2-D model and obtained a solution which is giving me values for contact...
Hi everyone,
I am a novice where it comes to ansys workbench and am still learning the basics so this might seem like two daft questions but I could really be doing with some assistance.
Firstly. What is the maximum shear stress showing when you plot it in workbench? I mean I understand what...
Thanks for you help. Im still struggling to get my head around this, what I have is a beam with a uniform pressure applied over it so I'm not sure in this situation if the bending force and perpandicular component of the shear force would also have to be taken into account. To be honest I really...
Hi everyone I am trying to determine the shear stress in a non prismatic beam and was wondering if anyone knew a good place to source some formula or better yet even had some worked examples. Any help would be very much appreciated I have been stuck with this for a few days now.
Hi everyone,
I am trying to find an analytical approach to determine the shear stress induced on a curved surface. I had originally applied simple shear theory for beams but the shear stress distribution will not be uniform for a curved surface. More specifically I am trying to work out the...
Thank you mfgenggear for your help, I think I have now managed to successfully create a solidworks model which I think looks fairly reasonable, I used some geometry and calculations from the machinery handbook so fingers crossed its accurate.
Cheers guys for all your help, I've gone throught the calcs in the Machienery handbook and have drafted up two models, one for each of the shaft variations. I am having issues determaning how much to fillet the edges at the top and the bottom of the teeth, the spline is a flat root slide type...
Hi everyone,
I am trying to create a solidworks model of an involute splined shaft, in particular the male externally splined shaft. I was wondering if anyone has any idea how to create an accurate model. I found articles reffering to software called SplineGen but have been unable to find the...
