Tensile Test MAT25
Hello,
I'm trying to create a simple model of a tensile test for composite material. I have data from a real tensile test and i want to compare the data of the force/strain diagramm with the simulation model. To realise that i tried to read the output data of the nodes with the /TH/NODE card for die displacement and the /TH/SECT card for die forces. My problem is that i don't get any data for the forces in the T01 file. The Question is now: Is my defintion for the cross section incorrecton?
Greetings
Eugen

Hi Eugen,
Please share the model file (_0000.rad) so that we can review the defined cross section.

Hi Eugen,
The imposed velocity load is not assigned to any node groups. Please reassign the imposed velocity load and check.

Hello George,
i fixed it, but still i dont get any results from the th/sectio outputblock. In the .out data there are only rows wtih 0 and it says that no nodes are connected to the section ( start at row 629, Im opening the files with the Programm Notepad++)
Do I have to to set a GNODS for the definiton of the Crosssetction?

Hi Eugen,
There is no need to define GRNOD set also.
Please find a simple model with a cross section defined.

Hello George,
how you defined the Crosssection excatly? I tried it my self with an axe system wich i defined by nodes und a group of elements. But i still dont get any results. I looked in the output file and there a no nodes connected:

Hi Eugen,
Create an element set (/GRSHEL/SHEL) and recall the same in the grshel_ID option in crosssection card. In Frame_ID option, recall the system you have created.
Please review the model I've sent before.

Hello George,
after some adjustments on the model i finaly got a workin simulation with the data i want. But the results dont match with the real tests.
Now i want to check if my inputs for the material data is incorrect or the mat law i choosed is not compatible. To do that i want to simplify the model. First to cut the elements to only 13 and set the same conditions before. The problems is that i get an error 760 and i dont know how to handle it. Here are the Error and the model file:

Hi Eugen,
The component in the model is not assigned with any property or material. Assign Part card image to the component and assign the material and property and try running the analysis.

I m sorry I have to realize tensile test analysis for cfrp composite specimen how to obtain load - displacement and stress - strain curve
I modeled 1/4 of composite specimen
I uploaded .rad file
I dont know force output displacement output stress and strain output

Hi,
By creating time history output for elements it is possible to output stress and strain for the elements.
Go to Analysis>Output Block> elements, select elements. Card edit the created output block and change the keyword accordingly. Use DEF keywprd to output the default outputs.
Please go through the Help Menu on Output Blocks which describes about the various outputs available in Time History.
Also please go through ths webiniat at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ef7Spn-j7fA&list=PL1u26y75SCrA_BOCLaSewVCNY7xRvCTnA&index=6 which describes about creating output blocks.
Using cross plot option you can crate load-displacement curves...etc. The steps for cross plotting is shown in an example file below. Please go through the documents attached.

in hypergraph, which file, I have to open? (.h3d, .out or t01) for plot

Hi,
Open the T01 file in HyperGraph for plotting the curves.

when I defined a crossection I recieve only force output but not stress, strain or displacement
I want to recieve stress strain and displacement output how to realize?

Hi,
I'm attaching a sample similar model where these options are used. I recommend you to go through the files.
In HyperView we have an option, build plots panel which allows user to construct multiple curves. User has to select the required element and using this option plots can be created.

in time history output for shell, F1 F2 variable are force or stress?

I have looked at this table however
when modelling of composite, I can obtain true stress in second direction (F2) why?
how to define or change fiber direction ?

I cannot get strain data however I can stress data where stress datas are f1 or f2 right?
how to get strain data?

Hi,
You can input /ANIM/SHELL/TENS/STRAIN/N, where N is the layer number (eg:/ANIM/SHELL/TENS/STRAIN/1 for strain in layer 1), keyword in the engine file for extracting strain for each ply.

ok, thanks
however how to obtain strain data for HYPERGRAPH

Hi,
You can create an output block for the elements and the time history output include plastic strains, strain rate...etc

Hi Karthic,
In HyperMesh, when crosssection is defined user has to create a set for the elements and also a node set which should be recalled here.

Hi George,
set for the elements and also a node set which should be recalled here.
So the node set contains the nodes that belong to the elements of element set?? I am correct
And how to create System with FRAME/MOV, FRAME/MOV2 ????
The system which i create is always FRAME/Fix by default.
so once when i select the system in /SECT, i am getting a message that ' Selected entity fails filter: Filter by system type/FRAME/MOV

Hello,
I actually had a question about the output requests of RADIOSS solver 2018. I want to see 1). the changes in the fiber orientation and 2). % Thinning as outputs after running stamping simulations using MAT LAW 25 and Stack Prop 51. Currently, I am unable to see these outputs in Hyperview 2017.3. I am aware that these results are solved for in case of MAT 58 which is a Fabric law but are these outputs not available in case of MAT 25?Thanks in advance!0
