Hello everybody,
I’m new in Ansys and I need advises in order to model a tensile/shear test of a blind rivet. I’ve already spent a lot of time trying to get a solution but I achieved... anything!
Let me explain the main steps I do and just tell me if I miss any important step or if I do a big...
Hello everybody,
I'm searching bibliography about blind rivets and the surprise is there isn't so much information (or at least I didn't find it), specially how to calculate connections, design criteria, etc. I'm really interested in lap metalsheets joints.
My questions are:
1.- Does anybody...
Hi everybody,
Let me explain my problem with meshing a sheet with a central hole.
I’m modelling a tensile test of a blind riveted connection (3 parts: 2 sheets and the setted blind rivet). I’m using SOLID185 (bricks) and linear isotropic material model.
I want to mesh it with hexahedrons...
