drop test procedure

drop test procedure

(OP)
I been working with some FEM software. When I go to solve the drop impact problem I don´t know the procedure to follow.
Do you have some information to make the drop impact test ?

The software just show me some equations about the problem. I don´t know if there is a mathematical model to make some calculation by hand.

I will appreciate any information related to.

Thanks.

RE: drop test procedure

You mean like ASTM E-208 "Standard Test Method for Conducting Drop-Weight Test to Determine Nil-Ductility Transition Temperature of Ferritic Steels?"

RE: drop test procedure

(OP)
arto,

I don´t know this specification, can you give me some address to go and find this ASTM E-208 ?
I will appreciate with this information.

Basically, I want to know if COSMOS is working with this procedure to make calculation with the finite element model.

Thanks in advance.

RE: drop test procedure

If using COSMOS, you should contact the VAR that sold you the software, they should be able to asnwer you on this point.
