Week 9 Tension and Torsion test challenge
Tension and torsion test
Objective:
To perform Tension and torsion test for a given component and to determine total deformation and temperature.
Procedure;
importing the given geometry and assigning specific material for the component.
first, for tension test we need to give a coordinate system for both left and right side of the bar.
for torsion test we need to assign a new coordinate system.
in order to perform mesh we need to give face sizing by adding sphere of influence.
For torsion test we need to go face sizing of 6 mm With spear of influence for the center part.

Now we need to place a fixed support by selecting the face option.
for tension test we need to give a displacement of 18mm positive X direction.
for torsion test we need to give a angular twisting moment of 1200 degree.
Results:
For tension test

Conclusion:
From the above results we conclude thus component in tension test undergoes permanent deformation due to elongation.
In torsion test the stress induced is more compared to the tension test.
