HELP WITH EDM ANSYS MODELLING

Submitted by ansys on

HAI ,

 

My name is krishna. I am a graduate student working on ansys.My advisor told me to simulate edm tool wear using ansys software. i am trying to get spark produced at the end of the tool .But i am not getting the results.Pls can any by help me with this simulation.

 

 

Its very urgent

 

Thanks

Basic information about Plasticity

Submitted by Amit.Ranade on

Does anyone know of a simple book, approximately 50 pages or so, for plasticity?. I am looking for something that is similar to Morton Gurtin's "Topics in Finite Elasticty" published by SIAM. This book is an uncluttered treatment of finite deformation elasticity and was very useful for me during graduate work. I am NOT looking for 200-300 page texts, becasue I will never get around to reading them.

About the polycrystal plasticity

Submitted by Yuanpei Duan on

Hi everyone,

I am trying to build polycrystal plasticity model  by using UMAT subroutine in ABAQUS. As we know, the orientation of grain is always espressed by Euler's angles. What I want to know is  how to assign different initial orientations to different grains using Euler's angles in Umat subroutine. Could anybody tell me how to do? Is there any example ?

Many Thanks,

Yuanpei
