    Which is the best criterion to analyse bone?

    The Mechanical Engineer who assists me merged the results of S1,S2,S3 and shear stresses to incorporate some failure criteria (including Mohr-Coulomb, Talmax, etc...) in the Ansys (Classical) Element Table. /post,1 cmsel,s,mm3 cmsel,a,mm4 aslv,s lsla,s ksll,s eslv,s,1 nsle,s,1 St=135...

    Running Ansys at Amazon EC2 Cluster. Is it possible?

    Hi all! Has anyone used the Amazon EC2 cluster to run an Ansys analysis? Is it possbile? Thank you!

    Which is the best criterion to analyse bone?

    At first, I was wondering using SEQV due to the model´s assumptions. However, when I act as a journal reviewer, I always ask authors to avoid using VM analysis in bone....So I am not comfortable to use VM, even when it is not a problem. The mech. engineer who helps me will define the Mohr´s...

    Which is the best criterion to analyse bone?

    In a simple way, I am studying the effects of a titanium device placed into bone. The Ti device is subjected to static loads. There are rough contact elements between bone and the device. The analysis is non-linear, and the the materials were set to be linear elastic. No plasticity was...

    Which is the best criterion to analyse bone?

    Thank you, IceBreakerSours! I do know the paper of Doblaré and coworkers (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14515768). The issue is: as it is a review, they were not able to affirm which is the most suitable criterion. When the bone is assumed to be isotropic, the article suggests the...

    Which is the best criterion to analyse bone?

    Hello all! Bone is an anisotropic material and it is considered to be brittle. However, it is modeled in most times as isotropic, as the anisotropic properties are not clear. Many times we analyse bone not to asses the simple risk of fracture, but to identify areas under high microstrains...

    Mean stress values - absolute value - for an entire volume: please help me! Ansys 14

    Hello everybody! I am trying to get the mean absolute value (e.g. SEQV) for an entire volume. Ansys provides max and min values, but not the mean. After ploting the volume, the best I got was: General Postproc > Element Table > List Element Table > select the stress I want = resulted in a list...

    How to view internal (slices) results in Ansys?

    Hello everybody! I need to view the results in the internal structure of my model ( Ansys 14 ). Doing such thing in Solidworks/Cosmos is so simple - you just drag the plane and the model is cut/sliced in the point of our interest - however I am having some difficulties in Ansys. I have tried...
