Dear community,

I'm trying to simulate a creep test done with the 3-point bending method (DMA test) under ANSYS to compare reality to ANSYS results. The material used is a PbSbSn or a PbSnAg soft solder following the Garofalo model (CREEP option in ANSYS with PLANE182) but the strain resulting is disproportionate to the real test I have done previously, why?

Moreover, how to be sure that a solder follows a Garofalo or an Anand model and/or to translate a model to an other like M. DARVEAUX done in the past?

Thank in advance for your help.

Steph
