    High Strain Rate Simulation using Abaqus

    I have tried changing the plastic data from Johnson Cook to isotropic and inserted the plastic region data of the tensile test. This time I have not introduced any damage model as to see if the data was the problem. Sadly there is a problem with the values. I have attached the cae file, if...

    High Strain Rate Simulation using Abaqus

    Looking at the free body cut tool, it shows extremely high peak forces. Units I am using are tons, mm,and N. The specimen doesn't fracture even when Johnson Cook fracture criterion is defined and element deletion is set to yes. However the stresses are very low. Incident bar > Steel: YM 210e+3...

    High Strain Rate Simulation using Abaqus

    Hello Everyone, I have created a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar simulation setup in Abaqus to capture the force acting on the bars. However, the results I obtained are all single digit Newton values which is unrealistic for steel bars and an aluminium specimen. The impact velocity is set to 10...
