    Plasticity Strain-Stress Graph

    What is the best strain-stress model to use with conrete?? im trying to use mises isotropic plasticity (rate independent) but it doesnt allow me to have a curve for strain-stess that resemble the one used in euro-code for concrete :-( negative slopes are not allowed! how can i used input the...

    arbitrary solid modelling?!?!

    dear mcgyvr i was expecting some useful suggestion related to the topic [thumbsdown] !! you didnt even recommend an alternative to Autocad! [neutral] i agree that autocad lacks lots of the necessary operations that can be done upon solids and surfaces. :-( any way it works quite well but with...

    arbitrary solid modelling?!?!

    HI TCARPENTER1 Autocad 2008 doesnt change any surface ito a solid im afraid :-( which makes things more comlicated! Its possible to change a surface into a solid and back to surface ONLY in the case of [ lines, polylines, circles, cirlce arcs & Splines ] as those elements can produse a...

    arbitrary solid modelling?!?!

    Hi TCARPENTER1 many thanks for your reply. Sadly enough, autocad 2008 only extrodes plan surfaces, i.e. curved surfaces or surfaces that result due to rotating a curve about an axis cannot be extrode :-( I will simplify my question by this example (but this example is so simple and can be done...

    arbitrary solid modelling?!?!

    Hello i wonder how its possible to tell autocad (2008) to turn a closed region in the 3d space into a solid object, Providing the region is surrounded by curved surfaces of different shapes. many thanks
