Dear all,

 

I have two two model each is containing one part. I want to bring those two parts  from the two model into one entirely new model. It would be highly appreciable if  anyone of you kindly give a solution of this issue.,

 

Best Regards

Magnetic bodies undergoing large deformations: how should we pull magnetic fields back to the reference configuration?

As is well known, the formulation of the equations describing a deformable solid is best done in the Lagrangian setting. For magnetized solids, however, one needs to take into account the magnetic field $h$ and the induction field $b$ generated by the body, whose description is usually done in the Eulerian setting.

how to appy a transient load when transient function is know in ansys.

Submitted by NAVTESH BAJPAI on

hii,

I m doing a project in which i have to apply a transient force in Ansys.The force func is:

force(t)=[1-cos(2*pi*f*t/3)]cos(2*pi*f*t)    for         t =   0 to 3/f

 

           = 0.0                                                          otherwise

 

FEM Programming -Adaptive Remeshing Problem Because of Penetration(Figure was attached to illustrate the problem)

Hello,everyone!

I'm programming by myself to do the simulation of forming process. I met the problem below. [img_assist|nid=8910|title=probelm|desc=penetration in adaptive remeshing|link=none|align=left|width=60|height=100]

I used second order triangular elements and h-refinement method in the simulation. When the workpiece(bottom) is remeshed, the new node is inside of the tool(upper). How can i solve the problem?

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks!

How do you add springs or trusses to an orphan mesh (imported mesh) in Abaqus?

Hello,I am a new user to Abaqus.  I created an FE mesh of the human neck using a different software, and successfully imported the .inp file into Abaqus.  I need to create either spring or truss elements to the mesh, and I am not sure how to do this, any thoughts?  Every time I try to add components, I get an error saying that you can’t change geometry to an orphan mesh.  Thanks

 

Multiple step analysis in ABAQUS CAE

Submitted by sjhowart on

Hi,

I am modeling a vertebral joint that consists of two vertebrae stacked on top of one another and connected through an intervertebral disc. The simulation I am trying to perform has three phases:

1.) Rotate the top vertebra to a specified angle with an angular velocity while holding the bottom vertebra in place.

2.) From the rotated position, apply a downward force to the top of the top vertebra while holding the bottom vertebra in place.

Modeling Concrete with plexiglass sheet inside it using Ansys

Submitted by Eagle on

Plexiglass sheet are buried inside the concrete when pouring 100days ago. Now we want to get Ansys model for these, I care about only the modal analysis at this time, tried several ways, e.g. using coupling/decoupling, but all these methods  don't work well. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
