    Dear Prakash,

    Thanks for the reply. The objective of our problem is the estimation of spring in angle in FRP composite material due to curing. Is hyper mesh is capable of doing this type of problems?(Curing process need to be simulated taking into account, the cure kinetics and mismatch of coefficient of thermal expansion between fiber and matrix)

    Hi Praksh Sir,

    Hope you are doing well.

    I would like to remind you about our previous discussion on simulation of curing conditions of composite materials. I am looking forward to hear from you.

     

    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,

     

    This is in development phase right now and may be implemented in the incoming version of HyperWorks. 

    Developers are working to make it possible with MDS and HX. I will keep you informed about this whenever there is an update
