Abaqus modelling to find out the time of failure when increasing the temperature???

Submitted by baleshan on

Hi all,

 

If you can pls advise me to modelthis experiment.

 

First I have applied a constantload for the steel member.

Then I have increased thetemperature of one of the member surface with time

until the member got failed.

This resulted in non-uniformtemperature variation across the section.

I have measured the temperaturesof the different surfaces of the member and

I would like to use thesetemperature values in my structural modelling.

Now I would like to model themember so that I can find out the time

failure.

 

In other words,

I have done the modelling forambient conditions.

However, i could not find out amethod to input these measured temperatures

and also to reduce the material properties with time
