Composite 3 Point Bend Test using Ansys Mechanical & Ansys Composite PrepPost (ACP)

Thank you.

Hello, can I reckon this video an actual bending mechanical test on composite? I want to know how the material deflects when a particular load has been placed on it.

[@dilshanchrishantha6548]

well explained tutorial.

[@laurarc2102]

could i parametrize the layers of carbon fiber to study how many would make the best efficiency?

Thanks for the explanation

[@attilabarhacs]

Can I run the simulation as nonlinear (large deflection = On)?

[@prashantpal5287]

is this a dynamic analysis ?? will the results be same, if I perform the same tests in transient structural .??

[@virajpatel4315]

hello sir , ma'am if i use smart crack in ANSYS i need to use either static or fatigue method for crack growth law is there any way to get pari's law value or the critical rate value from Ansys. And if i modal cracked specimen and change the loading condition my result will change too but the maximum stress or load will be same for material so how to find that ? can you please help with this.

[@dongkulisaacyu648]

for the contacts, does the dimensions need to be already defined?

[@dongkulisaacyu648]

meaning that, before the stack-up, the gap between the surfaces for the composites and the cylinders need to be defined,

how to make the support setup geometry?

We suggest you familiarise yourself with SpaceClaim / Ansys Discovery Modeling to create the test geometry as shown on screen in this video.
