Short fiber composite damage (Mean Field Homogenization Model)

 220.0
Short-fiber reinforced thermoplastics are popular in industry for their strength, lightness, and cost-effectiveness. Injection molding enables the creation of complex parts with dispersed short fibers. Failure in these materials is complex, involving various mechanisms like fiber cracking and plastic deformation. Current models for damage and failure are either macroscopic or simplified. A new method evaluates stiffness using continuum damage mechanics. It involves a two-stage model: first, fibers are split into groups (grains), then mean-field homogenization averages stiffness across phases, followed by overall homogenization. This approach simplifies composite geometry modeling. The method was tested on a distal radius plate, calibrated using experiments, and simulated using Abaqus finite element software with UMAT subroutine for damage and input file(INP) code has been used for homogenization. Notice: This package includes instructional video of simulation along with a PDF file explaining the theory and all relations in the package.

Creep Analysis in Abaqus

 120.0
(1)
In engineering, creep phenomenon refers to the gradual deformation or strain that occurs in a material over time when it is subjected to a constant load or stress (usually lower than yield stress) at high temperatures. It is a time-dependent process that can lead to the permanent deformation and failure of the material if not properly accounted for in design considerations. Creep analysis is vital in engineering to understand material behavior under sustained loads and high temperatures. It enables predicting deformation and potential damage, ensuring safe and reliable structures. Industries like power generation and aerospace benefit from considering creep for long-term safety and durability of components. In this training package, you will learn about Creep phenomenon and its related matters; you will learn several methods to estimate the creep life of a system’s components, such as Larson-Miller; moreover, all Abaqus models for the creep simulation such as Time-Hardening law and Strain-Hardening law will be explained along with Creep subroutine; also, there would be practical examples to teach you how to do these simulations.

The Johnson-Holmquist damage model is used in solid mechanics to simulate the mechanical behavior of damaged brittle materials over a range of strain rates, including ceramics, rocks, and concrete. These materials typically exhibit gradual degradation under load due to the development of microfractures and typically have high compressive strength but low tensile strength. In this package, there are 13 practical examples to teach you how to use this damage model. The workshops are categorized into Ceramic materials, concrete, glass materials, and others.

Abaqus Damage Model for Thermoplastic Polymers with UMAT Subroutine

 320.0
(1)
Thermoplastic polymers are materials composed of long molecular chains primarily consisting of carbon. These polymers possess the unique ability to be shaped and molded under heat and pressure while retaining their stability once formed. This high formability makes them widely used in various industries, including furniture production, plumbing fixtures, automotive components, food packaging containers, and other consumer products. This package introduces a thermodynamically consistent damage model capable of accurately predicting failure in thermoplastic polymers.  The implementation of this model is explained through the use of an ABAQUS user material (UMAT) subroutine. The package is structured as follows. The introduction section Provides an overview of thermoplastic polymers and their mechanical properties. In the Theory section, the constitutive damage model and its formulation are reviewed. Then, an algorithm for numerically integrating the damage constitutive equations is presented in the Implementation section. In the UMAT Subroutine section, a detailed explanation of the flowchart and structure of the subroutine is provided. Finally, two simulation examples, namely the T-fitting burst pressure test and the D-Split test, are performed and the obtained results, are investigated. Notice: Software files and A full PDF guideline (Problem description, theory, ...) are available; Videos are coming soon.

Ultra-High Performance Concrete structures refer to structures that are constructed using Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC). UHPC is a specialized type of concrete known for its exceptional strength, durability, and resistance to various environmental and loading conditions. UHPC structures can include bridges, high-rise buildings, infrastructure components, architectural elements, and more. Simulating UHPC structures is of significant importance. Through simulation, engineers can analyze and predict the structural behavior and performance of UHPC under different loading conditions. This includes assessing factors such as stress distribution, deformation, and failure mechanisms. By simulating UHPC structures, engineers can optimize the design, evaluate the structural integrity, and ensure the safety and reliability of these complex systems. In this project package, you will learn simulating the UHPC structures with many practical examples.

Full Composite fatigue Add-on (Academic and industrial usage)

 1800.0
This package is designed to instruct users on how to utilize the composite fatigue modeling Add-on, which removes the need to write a subroutine for composite fatigue modeling. Instead, users can select the composite type, input material properties, and generate the subroutine by clicking a button. The Add-on includes four types of composites, and the generated subroutine for all types is the UMAT. These four types are Unidirectional, Woven, short fiber composites (chopped), and wood. The fatigue criteria used for each type are the same as its respective package. For example, the fatigue criteria for woven composites are identical to that used in the "Simulation of woven composite fatigue in Abaqus" package. This Add-on provides a simple graphical user interface for composite fatigue modeling, which can be utilized for both academic and industrial applications.
