*HEADING COPPER ROD IMPACT (AXISYMMETRIC) ** ** This example simulates the high velocity impact of a copper rod ** onto a rigid wall. Similar tests have been performed to determine ** the material constants for high-pressure equations of state, and ** the test is sometimes described as the Taylor bar experiment. ** Extremely high plastic strains develop at the crushed end of the ** rod, resulting in severe local mesh distortion. ** *RESTART, WRITE, NUMBER INTERVAL=4 ** ** Generate a 10 x 36 mesh for the bar ** *NODE, NSET=CORNERS 1, .0000, .0000 11, .0032, .0000 397, .0000, .0324 407, .0032, .0324 *NGEN, NSET=HEAD 1, 11, 1 *NGEN, NSET=TAIL 397, 407, 1 *NFILL, NSET=ROD HEAD, TAIL, 36, 11 *NSET, NSET=AXIS, GENERATE 1, 397, 11 *NSET, NSET=BODY, GENERATE 12, 407, 1 *NSET,NSET=NOUT 397, *ELEMENT, TYPE=CAX4R 1, 1, 2, 13, 12 *ELGEN, ELSET=ROD 1, 10, 1, 1, 36, 11, 10 ** ** Representative material properties for copper ** *MATERIAL, NAME=COPPER *ELASTIC 110.E9, .3 *PLASTIC 314.E6, *DENSITY 8.97E3, *SOLID SECTION, ELSET=ROD, MATERIAL=COPPER,CONTROLS=ENHANCED *SECTION CONTROLS,NAME=ENHANCED,HOURGLASS=ENHANCED ** ** Zero radial displacements are imposed along the symmetry axis. ** To simulate the impact of the rod on a (frictionless) rigid wall, ** zero axial displacements are prescribed at one end of the rod, ** while all other nodes are subjected to an initial velocity field. ** *BOUNDARY HEAD, 2 AXIS, 1 *INITIAL CONDITIONS, TYPE=VELOCITY BODY, 2, -227. ** *NSET,NSET=NOUT HEAD,407 *ELSET,ELSET=EOUT,GENERATE 1,10,1 ** ** Run the problem for 80 microseconds ** *ELSET,ELSET=QA_TEST_EOUT EOUT, *NSET,NSET=QA_TEST_NOUT NOUT, ** *STEP *DYNAMIC, EXPLICIT , 80.E-6 *FILE OUTPUT,TIMEMARKS=YES,NUM=1 *EL FILE,ELSET=EOUT PEEQ, *NODE FILE,NSET=NOUT U, *ENERGY FILE ***OUTPUT,HISTORY,TIME INTERVAL=0. ***ENERGY OUTPUT **DT, **ALLKE, ***NODE OUTPUT,NSET=NOUT **U, *OUTPUT,FIELD,OP=NEW, NUMBER=4 *NODE OUTPUT U, *OUTPUT,FIELD,OP=NEW,TIMEMARKS=YES,NUM=1 *ELEMENT OUTPUT PEEQ,MISES,PE,LE,NE *OUTPUT,HISTORY,OP=NEW,TIME INTERVAL=1.6E-7 *ENERGY OUTPUT ALLKE, *NODE OUTPUT,NSET=NOUT U, *INCREMENTATION OUTPUT DT, *OUTPUT, FIELD, TIMEMARKS=YES, NUMBER INTERVAL=1 *ELEMENT OUTPUT, ELSET=QA_TEST_EOUT PEEQ, *NODE OUTPUT, NSET=QA_TEST_NOUT U, *OUTPUT,HISTORY,VARIABLE=PRESELECT,TIMEINT=8E-05 *END STEP
