<p>Hi everyone!<\/p><p>Im thinking about doing a “Compression After Impact” simulation. This consists of performing a dynamic impact on a specimen and after performing a compression test on the specimen. For this purpose, I have thought of doing two simulations: 1st dynamic and 2nd stactic simulation<\/p><p>My question is how to how to properly transfer <\/strong>the data between <\/strong>these two simulations<\/strong>.<\/p><p>In particular, I need to simulate the impact on a square plate to observe how the material is deformed and damaged, followed by a static compression where both the <span style=”text-decoration: underline;”>deformed mesh<\/span> <\/strong>and the <span style=”text-decoration: underline;”>altered material properties<\/strong><\/span> in the damaged area are considered.<\/p><p>So far, I have used Explicit Dynamics<\/em> for the impact analysis and Mechanical<\/em> for the compression. However, I am having difficulties importing the deformed mesh and the damage\/plasticity fields generated in the impact analysis into the compression analysis.<\/p><p>My main questions are:<\/p><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What is the best way to export the deformed mesh and accumulated damage states from the impact analysis in Explicit Dynamics<\/em>?<\/li>\n
  2. How can this deformed mesh and altered material properties be imported into the compression analysis in Mechanical<\/em> so that the damage characteristics are maintained?<\/li>\n
  3. Has anyone worked with External Data<\/em> or Data Mapping<\/em> tools in Workbench for this type of data transfer and could you share your experience?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    <p>I welcome any guidance or tutorials you can recommend, as my goal is to maintain continuity between the two simulations and ensure that the impact effects are reflected in the compression phase.<\/p><p>\"Compression<\/p><p>ref: https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/figure\/Compression-after-impact-CAI-experiments-a-the-new-CAI-fixture-designed-to-avoid_fig2_372666364<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-391600","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
