How to Plot Tangential Stress Contours In Abaqus

Submitted by manneth on

Hello,

Is there anyway i can calculate and plot the tangential stress in
Abaqus directly. I know we could do it manually in sense , calculate
s11, s22, s12 and then calculate tangential stress in excel. I would
like to calculate and plot tangential stress around the circular cutout
shown in the document attached. 

I would be really glad if someone could give me tips on this. 

Thank you,

V Manneth

Teeth implant Finite Element Analysis

Submitted by immuslih on

I am looking for a Finite Element software for Teeth and Implant modeling and analysis. Is there a special FE software for this, or which of these softwares can solve the proplem.

Abaqus, ProEng, Ansys, catia, solidworks, or anyother software..

please, if you know about solving this problem, share your thoughts with me.. or send me a link to this kind of analysis...

thanks to all in advance...

matlab code for 3d element with n number of nodes

i have problem in writing matlab code for 3D element to find electric potential at each node

i have the tool surface and workpiece surface and i have to find electric potential in the gap b/w tool and workpiece,for that i assume it as a solid and i took the laplaces equation to find potential i.e  

(∂φ/∂x)2 + (∂φ/∂y)2+ (∂φ/∂z)2=0

and the gap b/w tool and workpiece is divided into n layers and i have to find potential in each layer,for that i am considering it as a hexahedron octanory node element 

Indentation depth for sphere/limited elastic half-space

Hello,

 My problem is the following:

In clasical Hertz theory I was able to locate indentation depth for the case of sphere/elastic half space, which I will denote as d0. I am interested if there is a relatively simple solution for obtaining indentation depth (d1) if this half-space is limited, that is a sphere in contact with either of these three cases:

1. Semi-infinite cylinder of diameter W (sphere is in contact with the upper cylinder side)

2. Semi-infinite prism of side W (sphere is in contact with the upper prism side)

Hi,

I am working as a design engineer in one of a service provider MNC.I have 2 yrs of experience

I am a UG professional and would like to enhance my profile.

Can you pleasesuggest me what should i do...i mean which side should i go...design or analysis..and tools which i need to learn.

Basic dimensioning

Dear all,



Above is a proposal for a human wheel I would like to make, the inner cylinder would be perforated with holes smaller than the smallest finger without making it non-transparent. The difference with a hamster wheel is that it wouldn’t be stationary and is able to take ( large ) bends. The ribs seem rounded, but that’s only an optical illusion. The intention of the wheel is to give an alternative to the walking paths ( paved green space to keep your shoes clean ) in parks, a new experience with more freedom.
