I'm performing a nonlinear finite element analysis on ANSYS Workbench and I'm seeking for a way to plot the linearized plastic strain in a defined path. The problem is that I dont have this option on the program, I only can plot the linearized stresses. Could somebody help me to find a way to...
The structural displacements are due to DOC (Operation Condition) and DEC (Extreme Condition). I’m aware that I have to perform the fatigue design considering the cyclic load only. For this, I’m going to subtract the static portion. For others conditions I have to evaluate the piping loads...
I'm designing a piping in a offshore platform. This piping is interconnected between more than one structural modules and these modules are supported by four stools. I have to define the load combination to use on the analysis. However I dont know how to combine the directions of environmental...
Seal Grout specification
I am specifying a grout rubber seal to install in a sleeve jacket. I’m confuse about the information should I have to write to identify my project beyond the drawings. At the moment, I have drawings indicating the location where to install it and dimensions details. I...
Hi desertfox,
Thanks for your reply.
I am not interested to verify the welding because it is ok. I wanna check the local stesses in the steel leg pipe. I am using the same considerations formulas for hangers and supports. That formulations you can find in the Blodgett Book, section 6.6 (design...
The sketch is attached in my post.
I am interested to check the stresses in the jacket leg only. Thankshttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=86aa804e-0e2f-4de0-a3ed-fb2b922d6450&file=drawing.bmp
I'm checking a design of lifting eyes of a steel jacket. This is a lift where the jacket is removed from the barge to launch in the sea. There are four eyes fixed lifting the legs of the jacket. The respective eyes have four stiffening gusset. I have doubts about the verification of the local...
