How to do mesh sensitivity study on models with crack?
I am modeling a cracked sample,it is a rectangle with a crack starting in one side and extending to the center point of the rectangle plate. The plate is fixed at one side and stretched at the other side. The crack experinces opening mode I...
For running a load-unload simulation of a plastic material.Is nonlinear study the right one? I used displacement control and ran a model using this study I gave my sample 2.5% strain and then I set this strain go from 2.5% to zero, and I had an error indicating:Solution failure in a step>1, it...
Hello,
I wanted to model tensile testing of a steel plate(100mm*15*2mm, plane stress condition)using COSMOS/Solidworks. I have two questions. Could you help me?
1.when I use roller/slider to fix the base of the plate and I set 1mm displacement at the other end, solver fails. So I use fixed...
