Hi, I would like to model a tapered beam forming a hollow conical geometry as a transition piece between two cylinders of different diameter. I need it to be a beam type for further calculations in Aqwa. I'm aware that with APDL you can create a tapered cross section and then assign it...
It is essential to turn on large displacements. The mechanical stiffness of the model depends on material properties, contacts, and geometry. Large displacements refer to changes in model stiffness due to geometric changes, and ignoring geometric non-linearity can lead to convergence difficulties and ...
I drawn a beam element in ansys workbench now i should assign a stiffness matrix values of size 12*12 to beam element. Can you give me any suggestions. February 19, 2020 at 10:37 am Erik Kostson Ansys Employee Is there a reason why you do not want to use our standard beam e...
And there should be examples in the Abaqus manuals showing how to assign material properties. RE: How to define Stiffness values to each element in Abaqus ? rb1957 (Aerospace) 12 Oct 23 16:21 Ah, the material property is not the stiffness ! I'm not sure you can create an element ...
All bodies are assigned a material in Mechanical and the default is Structural Steel, but you can create your own material and assign it to the Line Body if you want a different weight.Then you have to add an Inertial Load, Standard Earth Gravity for the beam to have the weight used in...
“Thermal is interesting because a lot of electrical properties and material properties tend to be temperature-dependent,” says Ansys’ Morgan. “As things get hotter, that will affect the electrical property, which will in turn affect the heat that’s being generated, and then back into ...
Are there any APDL commands that can be used, or any tool that enforce the energy probe to select certain material for instant ? or any other solutions for this sistuation ? or is it possiple to use a pattern for the bolts configuration and assign the energy probe to this pattern ? Ma...
Ansys Employee Hi You can not do that. It is only possible to define the tapered beam inside mechanical using APDL command snippet. Never done this but perhaps it is possible (see the help manual for tapered beam, e.g., sectype,3,taper, sectype,2,beam, and sectype,1,beam, etc) ...
