Does anybody know the reason for the problem described above? Many thanks

Hello together, I'm a little bit confused about a Static Structural analysis in ANSYS Workbench 12.1 which involves an assembly (bracket and ball stud). I used SOLID 186 elements (Hexa Dominant) for both parts and Yield Strength of the material is exceeded for both. Plastic strain arises for...

Hi kan, Many thanks for your suggestions. I've made some research and finally I've noticed that it is not necessary to retry the load to zero to achieve plastic strain. Usually, plastic strain is almost the same in the last load step like the step where the load is applied. I could insert 90%...

thread569-272678 Hi , Can anyone help me with the past issue described in this thread: thread569-272678 Many thanks

Hi , I am running a Static non linear analysis with an assembly of two parts connected with Frictional contact. 2 load steps are applied : - 1. F= 1200 N - 2. F= 0 N The 2nd load step is "zero" to evaluate plastic strain after load retrieval. The problem is that in S.O. I get the following...
