Week 4 -Wire Bending Challenge

Objective:

To run the wire bending simulation with 3 different materials. 1. copper alloy NL, 2. Magnesium alloy NL, 3. Aluminum alloy NL and to find the Stress and strain of the wire alone.

Model:

Mesh:

Equivalent Stress:

The maximum stress on the wire is 336.46Mpa.

Equivalent Strain:

The max equivalent strain is 0.003
