ABAQUS 3D Model

Submitted by rakesh.srivastav on

Dear all,

Could anyone shed some light on constructing a 3D model in ABAQUS, which cannot be build by simple extrusion, revolution or sweep. I understand that I can build models in CAD and use it as an input for ABAQUS. The only other software I have is MATLAB. Any ideas on how I can build such models directly in ABAQUS/CAE ?

Thanks,

Rakesh 

How to Combine Shell Element and Solid Element in ANSYS

Submitted by allspot on

Hello Everybody

I'm currently working on on the tubular weld of joint modeling using ANSYS

Problems that I faced was how to combine elements of the shell (for chord and brace) with solid elements (for weld) so that stress transfer can occur between two elements

one technique that I know is using MPC

is there any among you who has a tutorial about it ..?

please help.....

"Composite materials for structural performance: Towards higher limits", Risø International Symposium, 5-9 September 2011

Submitted by Bent F. Sørensen on

I would like to invite you to submit papers for the 32nd Risø International Symposium on Materials Science: "Composite materials for structural performance: towards higher limits". The idea of the symposium is to explore what are the real limits of structural performance of composite structures, covering both limitations by (a) the properties of the materials and (b) limits from the design methods and criteria used in the structural design process.



Composite Plate Modelling in Ansys 9

Submitted by anuppydah on

Hi..

 

I'm new  to Ansys.. I need to model a composite plate with a hole. It needs to have 5 laminated layers with different fiber orientations.

I've been through all similar queries here and have managed to understand how to model the layup (using the section -> shell method).

I have also modelled a sample plate with a hole.

I have also inputed the various material properties of each individual layer (through the Material Model editor).

BUT!! HOW DO I INTEGRATE THE LAYUP WITH THE SAMPLE PLATE ???.

Hi All

I have just started my postgraduation in aerospace composites. I am new to FE of composites and required serious help in learning composite modelling. It will great if someone can help me in starting up. If you know any websites or books which have examples which I can go through to learn modelling of composites, please let me know. Thanks for your help.

Regards

Maajid
