Modeling with discussion: Tensile Loading of Fiber Metal laminates.

[@vishwasdivse5000]

Hi sir, in your model , you have modeled composite layer as homogenized material. how to model matrix, fibres and matrix-fibre interfaces to model a composite layer

[@harshvardhanmalik7117]

sir what is the part thickness of aluminum and glass fiber in the initial part as the relative thickness of eglass epoxy is 0.5 so is it the same thickness you have provided in part model of the ABAQUS

[@afaqahmad8044]

Hi Sanan.....I just saw your video and learnt a lot...thank you.....please tell me if I am using the stress in MPa, what are the values of the fracture energies, with respect to this video. Here, you use 1986.5. Regards

[@trangkieu230]

Hi Sanan, Could you please tell me the difference of geometric properties between L2L and M2L?

[@samerabdul-qadir227]

Dear Sir I have an issue with composite tube subhected to dynamic bending. the predicted force-displacement load is less than experimentla by a round 50% would you be able to help? Samer

[@PRasheedaPHD]

sir thank u for the video sir iam working on Impact for FML, after giving all the relavent data when i go for job.. iam not getting error but indentor is not in motion even though i have contact contraints and interaction between the layers

[@sinarrr]

hi sanan could you please explain, how i might go about doing a steady state thermal tensile simulation, lets say 600°c.

[@aakalim]

Thanks a lot for the video. It was really helpful. I am trying to model the bond slip between steel rebar and concrete. I have followed the same procdure as you have explined for the cohesive properties and the interaction. But the results are not very good. The steel seems not to transfer any stress to the surrounding concrete, and it seems as if the the cohesive action is not active. My questions is: since the steel is embedded in the concrete in my case, should i also specify the embedded constraint in Aqaqus?

[@wahaajali1009]

could you solve this problem? I am also having a similar one

[@azamabdullah107]

Hi Sanan. Great work.. I am having a problem for a composite crack modeling using XFEM .do you have any tutorial or video that can be shared?Thank you.

[@princel6819]

hi sanan, i followed the tutorial and tried it step by step. unfortunately i get an error "Surface based COHESIVE BEHAVIOR cannot be used for contact pair interactions. See the surface iteraction named L2L" please can u help me i this.

[@SanaanKhan]

+Prince L brig the surfaces in general contact and no cohesive behaviour in that. use the individual property assignment for that.

[@princel6819]

+Sanan H Khan thank you very much sanan. i try it

[@rushabhshah7748]

Hi Prince, Can you please tell me about surface interaction L2L. How to choose it ?

[@zhenyuhuang6069]

Hi, Sanan. Thanks for sharing your good work. Regarding modelling the composite pipe(let's say a very thin one 10mm with 50 layers), do you suggest that we use continuum shell to model it? In this case, we have model 50layers of composite as each one has different radius?Or do you another method to model the composite pipe? Appreciate your help.

[@SanaanKhan]

+Zhenyu Huang radius or thickness ? i think if out of plane stresses is not of much importance try using conventional shell.

[@FEADith]

Hi Sanan, Just a confirmation, do you really think do you need to specify the amplitude? I think you can just simply choose the ramp amplitude and it will do the same as you do. Dont need to make excel and matlab like that.. IMHO. Just check to clarify..

[@SanaanKhan]

Yes you are right. But I just want to ensure that the loading as slow as possible to avoid convergence issue. Moreover Ramp is not supported for Explicit analysis.

[@ksonkar]

Sanan H Khan why do we need to enter so many values? Wouldn't a tabular data ensure a linear progression?

[@amjad4184]

great video sanan. can you share some thoughts on how to implement periodic boundary conditions in abaqus. Im working on repeating unit cell model...

[@SanaanKhan]

amjad Khan its very easy. As you can see on 28:00 i m trying to tabulate the amplitude values. In the same way you can formulate a periodic amplitude data. you can use Matlab to generate these values like i have done, by using sin or cos function. this will give more smooth b.c. also you can define the amplitude as periodic instead of tabular.

[@lidongwang9087]

can you post the models (inp) to us?

[@balo700]

I have the same question

[@psaibhargav]

Sanan Is their any other procedure to model composite layup in abaqus with out using cohesive surfaces. Can I use tie constrains to combine the layers.

[@SanaanKhan]

Yes definitely it can be used. But u don't tie the layer instead you insert the cohesive elements between the layer and tie them together.

[@psaibhargav]

Sanan H Khan Thank you sanan. Is it is possible to disturb the fiber orientation in the middle of the ply to study the effect of in-plane fiber waviness.What is the logical way to model this fiber waviness.I have modeled tows and combined together using tie constrains to make a single ply, later I have modeled wavy tow in the center of the ply, the misaligned portion I fill with resin and tied them together to mock misalignment of fiber tows and resin rich area.I have used orthotropic properties & 3D Brick elements.

[@SanaanKhan]

Saibhargav Pottavarthi to obtain the in plane effect in this situation will not be possible I think. Why u are not trying it through micro mechanics approach. With single fibers of 0/90/45 etc with surrounding material as resin. RVE approach perhaps will be better I think. You will have more control over waviness.

[@lalkrishna4518]

Is geometry made by considering some ASTM standards? what are the dimensions of the geometry. i have tried a sample problem results are not showing the general trends. thank you

[@SanaanKhan]

yes... astm D7136

Hi Sanan, Could you please tell me where you get the data for hashin model and damage evolution and do you where where I can get data fro different lamina (actually I am working on woven carbon fiber lamina I just would need something similar to my composite) thanks

[@SanaanKhan]

I have obtained most of the parameters through experiment while rest is obtained via PD soden

[@usofshervan3338]

Hi Sanan Thank you so much for your professional video. I have a question. You have mentioned during your video that you have brought the material properties related to HASHIN damage form a paper with the name of “PSODEM” or something like this. Could you please tell me the correct name of this gay or more detail about his article title? Good luck Usof

[@jacobsame4512]

hi sir sanan i apreciated your methode of calculating fracure energy which seem easy can i use it to calculate fracture energy in mode 1 and mode 2 of a cohesive zone model interface of two bonded parts?

[@SanaanKhan]

salim yagoub. :) . NO buddy. technically it will be wrong. because the method gives the fracture as a function of stress strain and characteristic element length. while the fracture energy obtained in actual experiment will be area under the load disp. curve. now the load disp. curve cannot be converted to stress strain curve for interface layer for obvious reasons unlike composite laminate/brittle material.

[@SanaanKhan]

Sanan H Khan moreover. it is not a method. its a basic geometric understanding. and it only gives the approximate value. and i think approximate is starting step of FEM !!!

[@ksonkar]

Hi Sanan, great video and explanation. Truly helped. Can you explain how you calculated the value of Fracture energy? Also would there be any benefit of using a implicit model? How would the results differ?

[@SanaanKhan]

Kshitij Sonkar area under load disp curve is energy

[@ksonkar]

Sanan H Khan thanks, what about running the step as implicit?

[@SanaanKhan]

Kshitij Sonkar if your model is highly nonlinear you will face difficulty in conversing solutions

[@ksonkar]

Sanan H Khan okay. I'm facing issues with lower stain rates. You have used a very high rate. The calculations with lower rates like 0.1 per second take over an hour to calculate. Is there a way to reduce the run time.l?

[@rushabhshah7748]

Please reply to comment in your video 'Three point bend test of fibre metal laminates with cohesive surface behaviour'. It will be really helpful Thank you

[@srasajjadi82]

hiThank you for this grate video. I am modeling a 3d tensile specimen in abaqus explicit. This model have two parts. One part has elastic state and another part has become plastic. The material is steel. In modeling of interface, I have used interaction with surfaced - based cohesive behavior. My questions is ; How can I get Cohesive behavior, damage initiation and damage evolution parameters; Cohesive behavior=(Knn,Kss,Ktt) damage initiation =Normal only,Shear-1 only,Shear-2 Only damage evaluation = normal fracture energy, 1st shear fracture energy, 2st shear fracture energy .. Thank you

[@SanaanKhan]

these properties are obtained experimental depending upon your interface material. but my experience says that even if you got it from the experiments they will not exactly represents the behavior. they are strain rate dependent. and they are usually obtained from static tests. like enf and mmb are used to obtain fracture energies. however during an impact analysis the dissipated energy is more than experiment. so logical explanations are important while choosing the values. for example consider your interface as matrix dependent ( it is eventually made from the matrix !). so your Knn=E22, (very good assumption), choose other 2 as same.( mode independent). normal opening strength will be matrix strength in tension. as the crack will open during delamination normally. choose other two as same or 1.4 times or 1.5 times ( it is seen for most of the interface exposy resin). matrix tensile energy can be chosen for normal mode. other two can be made equal or as done for the strength above. but even if you dont have the matrix tensile energy. then find it out as Gmt=0.5*Yt*emt...Yt failure strength and emt is failure strain in tension. emt=sigma22/E22. if you follow the above guidelines you assumption will be good.

[@srasajjadi82]

thanks for your answer but my model has made of steel completely and only have one material. half of model has elastic state and the other has plastic state. I don't know what properties do I consider for interface of this two halves? by the way, how can I upload a picture of my model?

Hi Sanan, Thank you for this grate video,It is very useful. Can you explain more how to calculate Characteristic length.If we have only stress-strain energy, how to define this length and define fracture energy. Thank you in advance. Amirreza,

[@SanaanKhan]

characterstic length =sqrt(h*h)/cos(theta). here h is your element size and theta is crack opening angle. (you can take it as 45 degree)

Sanan H Khan hi sanan, How to calculate fracture energy of each mode(fiber and matrix). i have test data FD curve for four point bending test. and i dnt have adhesive property. is there any way to calculate the energy release rate for debonding

[@usannand]

Sanan H Khan is there any coupon test to conduct the fracture energy of each mode in FEA.

[@SanaanKhan]

Anand Nand as i stated in the video, the fracture energy for each mode (fiber and matrix tensile and compressive, 4 modes right !)will be obtained from the test data (FD) obtained from that particular mode. now you know a DCB, ENF and ECT will give you mode 1,2,3 respectively FD data. similarly MMB will give you a mixed mode (1,2) fracture energy.

[@SanaanKhan]

Anand Nand i think you are confused with the definition of the two terms. fracture toughness, fracture energy, EER. all looks to be very same. here is the difference. fracture energy is the critical energy after which the crack will grow, while EER is energy per unit area and will be there in the crack from the time it was loaded and even after it has propagated. it is the energy release rate which may go up and down. fracture toughness and fracture energy are same LEFM and differs in EPFM. fracture toughness is the critical energy that that crack reaches before making two new surfaces.
