Week 9 Tension and Torsion test challenge
Obejective : To simulate tension and torsion test of a steel specimen in Ansys Explicit dynamics:
Model:
Material: Steel 1006
Mesh:
- Method : Tetrahedrons
- Sizing 1 : Sphere of influence with 3mm mesh(left end)
- Sizing 2 : Sphere of influence with 3mm mesh(right end)
- Sizing 3 : Sphere of influence with 2mm mesh (middle)
Meshed Model:
Procedure and Boundary conditions:
End time : 1e-3 seconds
Fixed support : Left end of the specimen.
Displacement (case 1) : 18mm on right end of the specimen.
Results :
Case 1- tension test
