One strip is aluminium and the other is copper.<\/p>\n<p>How will the strain on the nodes at the interface be calculated? If we use strain= alphaXdelta_Temp&#8230;. then the alpha to be used in this calculation should be from Aluminium or from copper? Or both?<\/p>\n<p>if both the values are used for calculations, then how is the displacement of the interface evaluated from these strains?<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Any inputs are appreciated.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Best regards,<\/p>\n<p>Amit<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-162777","topic","type-topic","status-answered","hentry","topic-tag-interface","topic-tag-interface-boundary","topic-tag-structural-mechanics"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_author_ip":[""],"_bbp_old_reply_author_name_id":["Anonymous"],"_bbp_old_is_reply_anonymous_id":["false"],"_btv_view_count":["2664"],"_bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_bbp_subscription":["235110"],"_bbp_topic_status":["answered"],"_bbp_status":["publish"],"_bbp_topic_id":["162777"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["240","31263","180472","185320"],"_bbp_voice_count":["4"],"_bbp_reply_count":["15"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["193895"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["193895"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2021-10-10 20:30:03"]},"test":"amit-pandeythi-de"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/162777","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/162777\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":431552,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/162777\/revisions\/431552"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=162777"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
