As you know, there is tool chip removal problems solved. These are damage problems and i dont want to solve that problem as a damage one. I will try *Model change to deactivate some layers of mesh for the next loading step. I hope it will be satisfactory.
Thanks for your interest.
No this is not like eroding plate or chip removal problem.
Yes i want to simulate chip removed (like machined) by using mesh layer (same size with removed chip) deleted and get the remaining stress state.
Actually, I don't want to enforce stresses stay the same.
What i want is to get what remaining residual stresses are after material removal.
I will use that phase of the mesh with pretension applied and material removed for new loading conditions.
Thanks.
Hello,
I have a part meshed and solved for residual stresses.
I d like to delete a layer of mesh to simulate material removal but keep the remaining residual stress values.
What should i do step by step?
Thanks in advance.
