OBJECTIVE:Comparison of material properties and properties with changed properties.

Compare 7 cases as discussed in last 3 slides, in a tabulated format on the basis of:

1. Total number of cycles, Energy error, mass error and simulation time.
2. Notice the animation of all 5 and describe the animations in brief on the
basis of whether the elements are being deleted or cracked.
3. Plot energies and notice any difference.
4. Based on all the results, which case would represent the on-field
scenario.
5. Prepare a ppt/docx and list down case by case result and your conclusion
as to why the failure happened.

PROCEDURE:

1) Import a .rad file: In any solver it is necessary to import a .rad file why because the rad extension means radioss file. before goint to import we need to set up in a radioss solver . below figure represents the solver.

after that import a .rad model

CASE-1: Run the model as it is and assgin the name as eps_max_failure.for this case we no need to change any material properties or normal properties. or failure johnson card.

below figure represents the case 1.

after the importion the component will be like beolw one.

we have to put it in shaded element with mesh lines.

after importion there is no changing of any property.below figure represents the no changing material card.

after we will go to analysis and we have to press the radioss.

we will get a errors we need to note down the errors in each case.

This is law 2 means : is an isotropic elasto-plastic materila .it uses johnson-cook material model. this model expresses material stress as a function of strain,strain rate and temperature. we can decide at what plastic strain the element fails.if we observe the animation file the material undergoes elasticity and after reaching the yeild strenth then only it will rupture. this means it is related to elasto plastic material.

By using the graph we can conclude more.

we can observe the rigid wall force increasing upon the graph reaches to the 8500. and then it goes down. and then it risese.

by considering all the seven cases we will conclude that material 36 it means law 36 is best compared to any other law because it can be tested in laborataries for better accuracy.below table represents the seven cases.

CASE NO CURRENT LAW CHANGE TO LAW CHANGE IN THE MATERIAL PARAMENTES DESCRIPTION
1 Law 2 Run as it is

EPSmax&signmamax are the failures criterias.

They are ultimate stress and strain values from the stress strain curve.

2 Law 2

change the failure parameters in johnson failure card:

ifail_sh=1

Dadv=1

Ixfem=1

D1,D2&D3 (from strain rate data) are the failures criterias.
3 Law2 Delete failure_johnson material card. Failure criterias.
4 Law2 Delete EPS_P_max when EPS_P_max is set to zero.we get infinite strain. simulation will stop element reaches sigma max.
5 Law 2 Law 1 Keep the density,younghs modulus, and poissions ratio same as that in Law2 materialcard. Material is completely Elastic, ie, infinite strain rate.these are no failure criterias.therefore the elements wont fail.
6 law 27

The failure parameters are et: strain at the begining of tensile failure.

em:Maximum Tensile strain.

dmax: maximum damage factor.

ef:Max Tensile strain for element deletion.

7 Law 2 law 36

The elstic region is defined by density, Younghs modulus, and poissions ratio.

The platic region is defined by the rupture parameters.

The rupture parameters are:

EPS_t: strain at the begining of Tensile Damage.

Epilson_F: Tensile Failure Strain

the above parameter for rupture only.

EPS_P_max:Plastic Failure Strain

[The last one is a combined Failure].

Comparision of all the 7 cases

CASE TOTAL NO OF CYCLES ENERGY ERROR MASS ERROR TOTAL SIMULATION RUN TIME
1 49379 0.8% 0.00% 122.38s
2 49216 4.1% 0.00% 126.94s
3 49407 0.8% 0.00% 126.94s
4 48736 3.0% 0.00% 121.28s
5 47968 1.3% 0.00% 119.14s
6 49506 0.8% 0.00% 128.47s
7 48736 3.0% 0.00% 121.28s

By observing these cases

case 6 takes more cycles and it takes more run time than other for law_27.it is only used for brittle materials.

comparing case 1 and case 2 we will coclude that after assigning the failure johnson card in case 2 it resist the stress more compared to case 1.

After deleting the failure card in case 3 it shows it only resist the stress less than case 1. so johnson failure card is good to resist more stress.

with case 4 deleting the Eps_p_max there is strain energy and there is no brakage due to put the value to 0. so we conclude that without assigining the epspmax is used to find the how much it elasticity and plasticity.

After observing case 5 it changed to law 1 it induce maximum strain.material is completely elastic.concluding case 4 with 5, there is a large strain energy induced in case 4.

case 6 is for brittle materials.case 7 is mostly used for laboratory conditons.it is very useful to get more accurate results.compared to all cases , case 7 is more preferable.
