(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.

Piezoelectric materials exhibit a unique property known as piezoelectricity, where they can generate electric charges when subjected to mechanical stress or deformation, and conversely, deform when an electric field is applied. This phenomenon arises from their crystal structure, enabling the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice versa. Simulating piezoelectric materials is of great importance as it allows engineers to optimize the design and performance of devices and systems that utilize these materials. Through simulations, engineers can analyze factors like stress distribution, deformation, and electrical response, aiding in performance prediction and failure analysis. Simulations also enable the study of parameter sensitivity, understanding how changes in parameters impact piezoelectric devices. This information helps in making informed design decisions and optimizing the integration of piezoelectric components into larger systems. Furthermore, simulating piezoelectric materials reduces the need for physical prototypes, saving time and costs associated with experimental setups. It enhances the understanding and development of piezoelectric technology, facilitating its widespread application in various industries. In this training package, you will learn what is a piezoelectric, types of piezoelectric, piezoelectric applications, and how to simulate piezoelectrics in Abaqus.
