Ice failure simulation
Hi,
I want to simulate Ice failure simulation in abaqus. In my problem, ice is deposited between 2 components.
While I am trying to move one compoents, the ice is restricting the movement of the components. Now I want to find out the force at which the ice starts to failure .
any methods are available n abaqus., Plz let me know if any body knows abt this kind of simulation.
Thanks in advance

Is anyone familiar with deriving shape functions for different beam end conditions?
I am doing my research in nonlinear vibration of beams. In that research, I have to derive the shape function for different end conditions of the beam. Regarding this,I need some ideas. Are there books I can reference?
Thank you for your help.
ABAQUS fatigue and fracture
I am trying to find the rate of crack growth in steel beam under fatigue loading using ABAQUS... i am having trouble with the loading part.... How to provide cyclic loads in ABAQUS...and obtain the increment in crack length with time??? Please help

I would like to use condensation to calculate the normal modes of
a structure. These grids are connected to the structure through RBE3 (master
grid). Let me know if there's a way to use the master grids of RBE3 elements in
the A-SET?

Abaqus: Composite delamination with cohesive elements
Hello,
I have to do a FEA regarding impact damage and delamination propagation in a CFRP specimen.
I have to do this using cohesive element in order to see the propagation of the delamination front in the material.
My problem is that I don't know how to do this in Abaqus.
I'll better explain: I can use this software but is the first time approching composite behavior and I really don't know how to model that.
Confusion in ls-dyna
Recently, I has been analyzing the
WANG_NEFSKE model of airbag.There is a keyword named C23, which is defined as
Vent orifice coefficient in LS-DYNA manual. How can I determine the magnitude
of it? Is there any references I can refer to? I hope you reply!
Thanks
Viscoelastic & Viscoplastic Behaviour of flex printed circuit boards under bending loads
Hello,
I am currently working on my M.Sc Thesis project of fatigue lifcycle of Flex printed circuit boards which is composite material of Polymer & Metal.Want some help who has worked on this topic which deals with Viscoelastic & Plastic behaviour of materials under action of pure bending loads.Help & Guidance would be appreciated.Need to come up with an equation which has stress & strain relating to lifecycle of Flex printed circuit boards.
Awaiting your reply,
Regards,
Nishant

Ping!
I heard a sound in my email Inbox. It was from the editor-in-chief of Elsevier's Engineering Failure Analysis journal. I opened the email and read that my paper was accepted to be published under some conditions for revisions per peer reviewer's comments.
