How to solve global stiffness problem using FEA in Ansys?

Submitted by phamduyhai0201 on

 
 HI EVERY BODY!
 
      I'm studying about composite pressure vessel type 3 (that 's with liner inside) . I use Ansys to simulate my object, but i have a problem, i can't solve stress and strain for Solid64 (global stiffness). I don't know how can combine Matlab with Ansys to solve that problem.
 
      I hope some one have some experience in this field can help me. May be show me some simple example how to solve that problem.  

Incompressibility and Bulk Stress for Viscoelasticity

Submitted by shrimad on

Hi all,

 

I am performing compression on a viscoelastic material with relaxation only in shear and the bulk being nearly incompressible.

The relaxation times for shear are of the order of millisecons so shear stress is dissipated almost immediately at the end. But there are high stresses due to bulk part.

Help with curved specimen and mechanical loading

Background:

Rib fractures in infants are highly suggestive of child abuse. I am performing mechanical testing and finite element analysis on pig ribs with the aim of characterising the behaviour of ribs under anterior-posterior (from end to end rather from the side) loading.

Large electric field induced strains in ferroelectric islands

Submitted by jzz108 on

An effective mechanism that generates large recoverable electric field induced strains in ferroelectric islands is studied by phase-field modeling. The large strains originate from the reversible 90° domain switching between a1 (a2) domains and c domains, driven by an applied electric field and an internal stress field. The electric field induced strains could be effectively controlled by the magnitude of island-substrate misfit and the aspect ratio of islands.

Multiscale method with model reduction

Submitted by Julien Yvonnet on

Model reduction based on Propper Orthogonal decomposition is widely used in Computational mechanics to reduce the number of degrees of freedom in systems. In the attached papers, we introduced a POD-based model reduction in a multiscale framework to significantly reduce the computations.

A very basic doubt in Strength Of Materials

Submitted by ROHAN_SK on

Hi Members,

                   This may seem a very basic or even stupid question to you all , but it still leaves me with a doubt regarding the concept behind the WHY and HOW of this. So however trivial this may seem Please bear wiith it and Help me Clearify my concept and getting the right idea.
