You can see two sliders. I apply force using one slider to another slider. Best part is one slider move little bit

and helps second slider

to slide 6 times length at 70 % force.

For More information please visit http://mechanicalresearch.info/

Energy Used to move first slider=force*distance

=100N*0.05m

=5Nm

Energy Get on Other Slider= Force*Distance

=Force applied by first slider*cos(45`)*distance

=100*0.7*0.25

=17.5

Structural dynamics book recommendation

Submitted by Xi Liu on Sun, 11/09/2014 - 20:51

Learnt structure dynamics many many years ago. Forget most of them. Need to do FEM dynamic analysis.

Can anyone suggest a really good classic book that I can seft-learn. I want to know the fundamentals behind the analysis.

thanks

3D Composite Element

# Finite Element modeling

I am performing a thermal stress analysis of composites. I need to verfiy the results with an existing paper. The variation of the thermal force resultants, Nx, Ny, and Nxy, of the plate along the y direction . I would like to know how to obtain the same with abaqus.

Dear Reader,

I recently took over as the ESIS blog editor. Being the second in this baton relay, I will do my best to live up to the good reader expectations that have been established by my precursor, who is also one of the instigators of the blog, Wolfgang Brocks.
