compression test
Hello users, I need to validate material model based on uniaxial compression test. I have stress-strain curve. I have some basic doubts 1. What is the difference between plastic strain and volumetric plastic strain(is it strain due to hydrostatic compression). How to find volumetric plastic...- camefem

Static loading but general contact from explicit solver
Hello, I want to do static loading test. But, due to complicated contact, analysis is not converging. So, i would like to use general contact algorithm (which is possible only in Dynamic explicit) but loading should be static. How could it be acheived? Is it possible? Hope i am not so stupid...- camefem

Dynamic analysis
Hello, For a dynamic analysis on automobile component, i have the following inputs. Accleration: 24 G and 30 ms(continuously). Mesh: shell (40000 elements) Material: Linear. But geometric nonlinearity presents as per static loading analysis. Do i need mass scaling as mentioned in abaqus...- camefem
