Hello all...,
I want to know the method of getting convergence when a Soft body and a Stiff body is in contact and a large force is acting normal to the contact interface. I am actually facing this problem often.
Anybody pls help...

We are excited to announce the arrival of version 1.5 of FEBio (Finite Elements for Biomechanics). This new version can be downloaded at http://mrl.sci.utah.edu/software/febio. FEBio is an open-source finite element package, specifically designed for solving problems in the field of computational biomechanics. This new version includes some major changes and contains a number of new and exciting features. Some of the noteworthy changes and additions are listed below.
can anyone plz me to form multi linear stress strain curve for concrete M20 to be used in material properties for concrete 65 to be used in analysis in ansys mechanical apdl..............
An Indo-Danish bilateral workshop on “Future Composite Technologies for Wind Turbine Blades” was jointly organized by the Department of Wind Energy, Technical University of Denmark and Applied Mechanics Department, Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi, India. We think this is an exciting Workshop covering several research topics relates to wind turbine blades – design and manufacturing, new computational methods, processing and materials characterization techniques.
hi....i m working on ansys(mehanical apdl).....here i m doing non linear material model analysis of a two panel slab....i have chosen material model 1 as multilinear elastic and entered the graph in that and took material no.2 for steel with EX=2E8,PR=.33....units are in SI.....NOW I m getting the warning as"For material 1 at temperature 0 has a tangent slope of its stress strain curve <75000> greater than EX <6.0134717-154>..............can anyone suggest some solution for this....
I have put a history output request of displacement of a set of nodes in my model but the history output request doesnt how up in the results tree. Please help.
Thanks in advance ,

A combination of experiment and theory shows that dielectric elastomers exhibit complex interplay of nonlinear processes. Membranes of a dielectric elastomer are prepared in various states of prestretches by using rigid clamps and mechanical forces.
