Hi everyone:
We all know that materials may perform different strain rate sensitivity. Is there a root cause of this sensitivity?
Hi,
I am trying to solve a 3PB specimen with a notch. I am doing the dynamic explicit analysis. I want to find the J-integral. Giving the J-integral as history output. Trying to run it gives following error.

Hi Everybody.
I'm modelling Nitinol stent crimp and expansion
into an idealised artery in Abaqus/Explicit. I am having numerous
problems with the ratio of kinetic energy to internal energy with the
analysis. I was hoping somebody may provide me with some insight on
this.
I am modelling the crimp stage using a C3D8 elements for
the stent and have defined a surface section for the crimper surface. I
am using kinetic contact and surface to node contact (surface to surface
from where i can get functionally graded material in the form of sheets or any other form for experimental purpose in india
Hi
I am having difficulty with modelling isotropic hardening for sheet metal material in a simple spreadsheet or MathCAD program.
I can model the initial yield condition using an appropriate (plane stress) yield criterion. I have also fitted a hardening law to the experimental data for uniaxial tension. I am having difficulty with the effective stress-strain relations and how this relates back to yield surface expansion.
Has anyone modelled experimental data in this way?
Dear all,
I want to model two composite plates who are connected with an adhesive joint:

the upper and lower plate are modelled as composite plates while the vertical part on the right should represent the adhesive joint between them.
