    Finding center of gravity

    holllooo if i undestand your question her is a simple way to do it!! export your geometry file to Ansys or better to LSDYNA3D it will do it for you if it is an AutoCad file it should be exportable..., in general the center of gravity it is not coincident with the centroid it is only the case...

    Connect or constrain or model contact in LSDYNA3D v960

    Help needed: hi all what are the best easy ways to connect or constrain or model contact in LSDYNA3D v960 for the following parts i. thick shell elements part firmly resting on solid elements part, both are concrete modeled in rigid material ii. tubular steel beam firmly rested and connected to...

    Lsdyna error

    greetings this problem usually incountered with soft materials such as foam *mat 57, change to *mat rigid type 20 or dig deep for proper contact, the maen reson i believe is could be due to adjacent materials of very diiferent stiffness. hanibal

    Wind load on Steel towers supporting elevators

    Hii it depends on the top of the tower, the requirements to overcome the overturninig will overpass any side wind loadings, therefore use transparent stairs and platforms and elevator to minimise wind loads, structural tube steel members for the tower will be governed by overturning rather than...

    Determining The Load (Capacity) Rating for a Proposed Structure Design

    hiii it is striaght forward brother, have a structural analysis if not ready, then a dopt a Recognized Steel Code such as AISC or CISC from there and based on your analysis forces and or moments choose your members and carry on code required checks to confirm membrs strength, otherwise if your...

    Structural Analysis for Offshore Platform

    hello it depends on the code you are using and how much time willing to spend how large is the platform itself, is it fixed or moored, I believe you are looking for explicit nonlinear dynamic type of analysis, codes such as Abaques, LSDYNA3D, and probably Ansys are the codes you need to...

    Drawing floating wind energy converter

    The solid model need to be ready to mesh and import to LS-DYNA program for finite element analysis either help in getting that done or advice where to get ME30 3D hp software for solid modeling.
