Requesting help on ALE and corpuscular method in simulating airbag in LS-DYNA
Dear all,
I am currently doing my undergraduate final year project on gas flow dynamics of airbag. I am using LS-Dyna to simulate 3 different gas flow condition (uniform pressure, ALE and corpuscular).
I am able to obtain a simple model of airbag from LS-Prepost website. I am modifying it to learn more on ALE and corpuscular.
For ALE method,
Homogenization in ABAQUS
Hello everybody,
I have a problem with homogenization of fibre reinforced composite in Abaqus.
I need to get stress components S11, S22, S33, S12, S13, S23 of each element and it's volume to calculate average stress on each element. Here comes the problem: I'm trying to use Field Output calculator but I can't multiply, for example, S11(i)*EVOL(i) because there are no components of S in this calculator and I can only operate with tensor S.
