Hello,
I want to use *MODEL CHANGE to deactivate a contact pair, where exactly that has to be defined in the input deck just before the *STEP or in the *STEP? I am not very clear on this.
Thanks.
Hello,
I am working on prediction of material properties of composite materials. I have evaluated the elastic properties of the composite, I would like to obtain the load vs displacement curve of the composite from the stress strain data of the individual (fiber and matrix) materials. I have...
Hello,
I am performing an analysis of composite laminate and have to apply a load such that it should be uniform on all the nodes on that surface. The displacement of the body should be uniform. Do I have to make the surface where load acts as rigid?
If yes how do I start?
Thanks for the help.
Hi,
I am performing a failure analysis of [0/+45/-45/90] laminate and I want to use the Tsai-wu failure criteria. In Abaqus I have specified the fail stress values of the material(s) and I want to post process the results.
What should I do for post processing?
Thank You.
Hi,
I am performing an analysis of composite material where I want to predict the overall properties. I want to apply a uniform pressure loading on each and every node on a surface. How do I apply the load?
Thank you very much.
Hello,
I am performing an analysis to predict the overall properties of composite material(fibers and Matrix, 3D). I have got the desired properties of the material. Now I would like to get the stress vs strain curve to know the behavior of the material. How do I proceed?
Thanks in advance...
Hello,
I want to define a elastic-plastic model, how do I input the properties of the material? First if I define material 1, then do I have to input its elastic properties and then the plastic properties? Is this the procedure?
All comments are welcome.
Thank you.
Hi,
I have two parts(3D) a cube and a cylinder. The cylinder is inside the cube. Some part of the cylinder comes out of the cube. I want to get rid of the part of cylinder coming out of the cube. The two parts represents composite and should be merged together. If I merge and then take off the...
Hi,
I want to run a simulation of a composite material consisting of fibers and Matrix. The top surface of the model has to be rigid in order to apply load. I would like to model a rigid plate.I am planning to use analytical rigid surface approach. I have never used analytical rigid bodies...
I have two different volumes, a cube and a cylinder of two different materials. The cylinder is inside the cube. The cylinder and cube should act as a single volume upon loading. If I merge the two volumes in assembly module, then I can mesh the two volumes as one. But how do I apply two...
