Week 9 Tension and Torsion test challenge

OBJECTIVE:

To perform the tension and torsion test of a steel specimen and obtain the total deformation and stress.

METHODOLOGY:

• First select the explicit material and add it to the engineering data.
• 
• assaign the material to the part and apply the mesh and perform the sizing operations by choosing sphere of influence.
• 
• set the step end time in the analysis settings and fix the one end of the specimen
• at the other end give the displacement in order to perform the tension test.
• 
• for performing torsion test give the rotation as the input.
• 
• run the simulation and obtain the results for each case.

CASE 1:Tension test.

CASE 2:torsion test

TABLE:

case	total deformation(mm)	equivalent stress(Mpa)	user defined result(temp)
tension	18.03	610.52	274.73
torsion	11.69	591.7	426.3
