Assignment 2-RADIOSS Engine File Editing & 3D Meshing Challenge
Assignment-2
1)Rail steel steel Material
Speed of sound= sq root of (E/Rho)
E of steel rail:210 Gpa=210 x 10^9 Pascal
Density of steel rail:7820 kg/m^3
|
2) calculate the Time for shock wave or pressure wave to travel
speed of sound=Dist/Time
Dist:1000mm =1m
Time:dist/speed
= 1m/5182
=0.1929 milli sec
3) Sound wave -Time to travel across the steel rail of given length
|
4) Edit the engine file such a way that the simulation termination time is equal to the sound travel time to given length of steel rail.
Sound time: 01929 ms which is equal to the termination time of simulation. So do changes the engine card file accordingly to monitor the stress waves.
No of Animation steps :20 nos
Time for one animation step:0.1929/20=0.0096 ms

6)1D element creation

1D Bar element is connected between the above two components.
1D element type: Bar element –Element type-Beam3N
7)3D meshing -Tetra and Hexa meshing-housing
