Simpleware Case Study: Homogenisation of the Material Properties of Multi-Phase Materials

Submitted by Simpleware on

Modelling large structures containing multiple phases over much shorter length scales is often very difficult. Learn how Double Precision Consultancy in the UK solved this problem using Simpleware software when analysing a Mussel shell acquired using X-ray tomography.

Hi I am working on the designing of a crash test bench to measure vehicle door intrusions ?

Could some one provide me basic ideas on the test bench set up and how to mout the door on the test rig and which degrees of freedom to lock ?.

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on modelling ITZ zones in concrete 2D microstructure. ITZ is the cement paste zone near the surface of aggregate which differs in properties from bulk cement paste. The thichness of ITZ zone ranges from 10-50 micrometer (0.01 - 0.05 mm). The size of RVE I am using is 100X100 mm which makes ITZ a very fine detail in my microstructure. I have created a instance in abaqus merging all parts, Aggregate, ITZ and Matrix( Cement Paste).

I seeded the instance with using these parameter:

Lateral torsional buckling of I beams with restraint

Submitted by Vanadium on

I am looking to model buckling of I steel beams with restraint in abaqus. But I do not know how to make rigid connections between the steel members. 

 

Why is the other beam( beam with fixed supports) not stressed? How do i define contact between the two beams.
