Simulation of residual stress relaxation of 2024-T351 aluminum alloy

Submitted by GOKILA on

I am doing one project regarding simulation of modeling residual stress relaxation for AA2024-T351. I am having trouble in introducing cyclic loading for the material. what are the steps needed to do this simulation? i have attached the workpiece dimensions.

 Hi GOKLIA,

Recently,I used Marc to simulate residual displacement, corresponding to
residual stress.You need input a plastic-strain curve, and loads  0-F-0 cyclic
with 10 steps,F must be enough to make the model generate palstic deformation.I
hope it canbe help for you!
