Hello all,
I have been scanning the net for a diagram of the configuration of a typical pharmaceutical plant with little joy! Basically, I just want a flow diagram (or block diagram) of how the various components link up in the process. I'm an Mech Engineer and not a chemical so that...
Hi all,
could anyone please give me the formula for the partially plastic moment for a circular section explaining the terms. I have one here but think it's wrong:-
Mpp = yield stress/6 x (2 x (outside dia.**2- elastic dia.**2)**1.5 - outside dia.**2 )
where ** denotes to the power...
Hi all,
my query deals with Voce constants in his constitutive law. I need to know three (of 4) material constants in the law for implementation in the Ansys design package, outside of the yield stress, for 316L Stainless steel.
Hope you can help,
Eoin
Hello everyone,
my problem deals with the strain rate sensitivity parameter in Anand's Viscoplastic model, m. Unfortunately this parameter cannot be input as negative in the model when in fact the behaviour of my material is characterised by negative strain rate sensitivity. i.e in my...
Hi all,
basically I'm looking at the rate dependent behaviour of 316L stainless steel wire (18 thou)in a cold forming process. I'm using Ansys to model this behaviour. Problem is that I do not know much about the material parameters for Anands viscoplasticity material model. Can these be...
My problem is as follows,
I have tested (tensile) stainless steel 316L wire(18 thou) at various strain rates to ascertain its rate dependant behaviour. Since the wire is highly cold drawn (>85% reduction in area) in the manufactured state, ant further increase in cold work, with increasing...
I am enquiring about the times required for stress annealing 316L wire, 18 thousands of an inch diameter,.
I intend that stress annealing will improved the ductility of this highly cold worked wire (> 85% reduction in area) for a subsequent cold-forming opertaion.
Corrosion resistance is an...
