SS-T: 4010 Structural Non-linear Analysis
Run structural non-linear analysis in SimSolid.
- Purpose
- SimSolid performs meshless structural
analysis that works on full featured parts and assemblies, is tolerant of
geometric imperfections, and runs in seconds to minutes. In this tutorial,
you will do the following:
- Create structural non-linear analysis (material and contact).
- Model Description
- The following files are needed for this tutorial:
- Material_Separating_NonLinearity.ssp
- Stress_strain_curve.csv
Open Project
- Start a new SimSolid session.
- On the main window toolbar, click Open Project .
- In the Open project file dialog, choose MaterialNonLinearity.ssp
- Click OK.
Define Non-linear Material
Assign Materials
Create Structural Non-linear Analysis
- In the main window toolbar, click .
- In the dialog, select the Material non-linear check box.
- Click OK.
Create Immovable Support
Define Pressure
Edit Solution Settings
- In the Analysis branch of the Project Tree, double-click on Solution settings.
- In the Solution settings dialog, for Adaptation select Global+Local in the drop-down menu.
- Click OK.
Run Analysis
- On the Project Tree, open the Analysis Workbench.
