I need to model an aircraft door with a sandwich construction as given below.
-- Prepreg - Face skin (0/90)
-- Prepreg - Doubler (+-45)
-- Core Material
-- Prepreg - Doubler (+-45)
-- Prepreg - Face skin (0/90)
I am doing it by using 3D solid modeling for the core and 2D shell modeling for the...
Hello SN,
Thanks for your reply. But I cannot understand your answer. i am attaching my bdf file and the dat file. Can you please help me figuring out where should I include these commands. Thanks...
Hello all,
I am trying to simulate progressive failure analysis of composites using SOL 600. I am post processing the Marc T16 file in patran for the results. I am using displacement controlled load. So I need to have the "costraint forces" data to plot my results. But, in SOL 600 I am not able...
Hello hezhj2000,
Thank you once again for the reply. I have a problem now in plotting the load displacement curve. I am not able to see "Constraint Forces, Translational" in the results eventhough I selected this in the output requests. I need to have this to plot the load deflection curve...
Hello hezhj2000,
Thanks for your valuable reply. Yes, I found out that I need to process the t16 file and got the load deflection plot as well. Now I have got another doubt, How can I determine the exact first ply failure load and the ultimate failure load from the obtained results ?. Thanks...
Dear all,
I am using SOL 600 implicit nonlinear solver to simulate the progressive failure analysis of a multilayered composite laminate. And I used Puck failure criteria while defining material properties with gradual failure option selected. I am simulating the progressive failure analysis of...
