Structural Analysis Presentation, General Introduction, V 4.2aStructural Analysis Presentation, General Introduction, V 4.2a

This presentation gives an overview of the Structural Mechanics Module. The included model example performs a structural analysis of an elbow bracket of steel fixed at one end. The component is part of a support mechanism and is...

Piezo-Acoustic TransducerPiezo-Acoustic Transducer

A piezoelectric transducer can be used either to transform an electric current to an acoustic pressure field or, the opposite, to produce an electric current from an acoustic field. These devices are generally useful for applications that...

Fluid-Structure Interaction in a Network of Blood VesselsFluid-Structure Interaction in a Network of Blood Vessels

This model refers to a portion of the vascular system of a young child - the upper part of the aorta artery. The blood vessels are embedded in a biological tissue (the cardiac muscle) and, during the flow of blood, pressure is applied to...

Snap Hook Snap Hook

This model simulates the insertion of a snap hook in its groove. Fasteners like this are common in the automotive industry, for example, in the control panel of a car. In this case it is important to know the force that must be applied in...

Sheet Metal FormingSheet Metal Forming

This example is a NAFEMS validation model of a friction contact problem with an elastoplastic material model. A thin metal sheet is being forced into a die by a punch. Both the compressing displacement and the release of the punch are...

Acoustic-Structure InteractionAcoustic-Structure Interaction

Liquid or gas acoustics coupled to structural objects such as membranes, plates or solids are important applications in many engineering fields. This model is a general demonstration of an acoustic fluid phenomenon in 3D that is...

Stress-Optical Effects - with Generalized Plane Strain and in a Photonic WaveguideStress-Optical Effects - with Generalized Plane Strain and in a Photonic Waveguide

Planar photonic waveguides in silica (SiO2) have a great potential for use in wavelength routing applications. The major problem with these kinds of waveguides is birefringence. Anisotropic refractive indices result in fundamental mode...

Viscoplastic Creep in Solder JointsViscoplastic Creep in Solder Joints

This example studies viscoplastic creep in solder joints under thermal loading using the Anand viscoplasticity model, which is suitable for large, isotropic, viscoplastic deformations in combination with small elastic deformations. The...

Fluid-Structure Interaction in Aluminum ExtrusionFluid-Structure Interaction in Aluminum Extrusion

In massive forming processes like rolling or extrusion, metal alloys are deformed in a hot solid state with material flowing under ideally plastic conditions. Such processes can be simulated effectively using computational fluid dynamics,...

Hyperelastic SealHyperelastic Seal

Loads that depend on the deformation are often termed follower loads. The most common case is a pressure directed along the normal to a surface which deforms. In general, both the direction of the load and the area of the loaded surface...
