Structural analysis of a submarine pipeline subjected to underwater shock

hello all,

Can I simulate a submarine pipeline subjected to underwater shock by Hypercrash ?

I need a pipe hm file where can I find it?

Best regards,

Hi Sara,

I recommend you to create the geometry in HyperMesh where you can easily create pipe like structures.

We have a RD-T: 3520: Pre-processing for Pipes Impact tutorial in Help and I have attached the same file where you can get the pipe geometry.

Dear George,

I cannot find the tutorial and also I cannot open the attached file. would you please sent me the tutorial?

I really appreciate your help and time.

Best Regards,

Sara

Hi George,

I am so sorry that I take your time.

I found it.

Thanks again.

Best,

Sara

Dear George,

can I simulate a flow over the pipes and an internal flow inside the pipes by Hypermesh and solve it by Radioss?

Best Regards,

Sara

Hi Sara,

You can have a try modelling water with SPH elements and solving with RADIOSS.

But I feel Acusolve, the CFD solver of Altair, is better suited for this need. We have a similar tutorial. https://altairuniversity.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/CFDacusolveflow1.pdf .
