Using Abaqus simulate the sheet bending operation and compare force with analytical model given, what will be a solution?

28 September 2023 1 6K Report

The figure below contains some information otherwise it could involve more assumptions.

Since this is a problem with an indefinite depth, my suggestion is to simulate it using a 2D model with plane strain elements for the sheet, and rigid bodies for the punch and the die. Then, you can compare the punch's force vs displacement plot with the analytical solution. Of course, you have to rearrange the equation a little to transform theta into a vertical displacement of the punch.

How to define and get results (stresses) for certain points of a model in abaqus, using python? When the size of the model changes?

I want to do a parameter study of a aixsymmetric cylinder in Abaqus. I want to create several jobs where I get the stresses for 3 different points in my model. These points are defined. I wrote a...
