how to know failure

how to know failure

how to know failure

(OP)
hallo every one,iam simulating a metal forming process by a hot fluid.the metal will undergo thining.what are the values the most mirror how much thing can the material handle.i mean should i look at the stresses or strains (plastic or elastic)or at the thining values to know when will the metal fracture and then the fluid will go throgh the metal. i hope iam clear with the question

RE: how to know failure

I recommend you find someone close to you to walk you through this...it is a non-trivial analysis.  There is a book entitled, [u]Metal Forming Processes[u] by Wagoner and Chenot published by Cambridge Press.  They dedicate a good bit of the book describing the complexities of FEA on processes similar to this.
