Hi,
I am not sure if I can post my question here, but if someone has idea please reply.
Recently I have performed 2D-FEM simulations at different temperatures. Young`s modulus and Shear modulus are comparable with the experimental as well as Analytical methods but Poisson`s ratio is much lower. My input values for Poisson`t ratios of both phases are more than output value, which I think is strange because it should be somewhere between the input values. I checked my calculations again and again but there is nothing wrong in there. Where am I going wrong?
thanks,
Vinston
