Irfan: Abaqus

Submitted by memimp on

I am doing spur gear contact simulation on abaqus when I do this driver gear rotate but driven gear not rotate as I observed in results.

So is there mistake in interaction module or constraint or boundary conditions?

I also followed instructions which were given to member " zeke2282".

3D phenomenological constitutive modeling of shape memory alloys based on microplane theory

Submitted by R.Mehrabi on

This paper is studied constitutive modeling of SMAs, that have some new features. Also some multiaxial loadings on SMAs are investigated experimentally.

Principle of minimum potential energy -- why is it true?

Submitted by Jayadeep U. B. on

Dear all,

Two fundamental concepts from thermodynamics are that systems try to minimise their potential energy, whereas the tendency is to maximise the entropy (ofcourse I am not at all precise in the above statement, but I hope I am able to convey the matter.  Further, the two can be combined in the form of a free enrgy as applicable to the system under consideration).
