Week 9 Tension and Torsion test challenge

OBJECTIVE

• For this challenge, you will have to perform the tension and torsion test on the specimen provided below the video corresponding to the challenge.
  
  
• For the tension test, displace one end of the specimen to 18mm while keeping the other fixed. You will need to find out the total deformation, equivalent stress and temperature of the specimen and attach appropriate images to show your results.

• For the torsion test, you will need to displace one end of the specimen to an angle of 1200 degree. Find out the total deformation, equivalent stress and temperature of the specimen and attach images to show your results.

MODEL

PROCEDURE

1. Open the ansys work bench

2.Select Explicit dynamics

3.Import the model from the geometry

4.Update the model

5.Edit the model

6.In Explicit dynamics Mechanical , Change the material to Steel 1006.

7.Mesh the component with element size 3mm

8.In analysis setting change the end time as 1e-3

9.Create displacement and fixed support accortingly.

10.Give displacement as 18mm

11.Solve the model

12.Evaluate results of Stress, Strain, Deformation and Temperature.

13.Do the same in Tortion test also.
