    fracture toughness evaluation from impact testing

    TVP, yes the test was conducted to get force vs Displacement data.I have the max force (load) before fracture and diplacement values. I remember for plastic material we can evalutae the energy absorbed by the specimen before fracture by integrating the area under the curve but how about the...

    fracture toughness evaluation from impact testing

    Hi, I have conducted impact testing on my NbSi alloy at RT which is very brittle. What could be the relevant formula to evaluate the fracture toughness (stress intensity factor) of the material? I have few relations to calculate stress intensity factors but it's not clearly explained it can be...

    importing models in to ANSYS, if the file is in unsupported format

    thanks for the reply. Yea I have tried to do that. I have all other products you mentioned in ANSYS, but none of those formats are included in the list of AMIRA exportable formats. AMIRA can import IGES formats but can't export to IGES. What could be any other possible way? AMIRA can export...

    importing models in to ANSYS, if the file is in unsupported format

    Hello, How would one import models generated in AMIRA 4.0 software in to ANSYS 9.0, if ansys doesn`t support amira format. Is there anyway such as writing link file in fortran or C and executing it??? Any input will be much helpful thanks vinston

    importing AMIRA files in to ANSYS

    Hello, I have just been using AMIRA4.0 3d-visuliazation&modelling software and I wonder if there is any way that I can import the *.am formatted files from AMIRA into ANSYS 9.0 for conducting simulations. thanks praveen
