model 14

[LUCA.85]

Bye to all,
I am using ansys 14 for the simulation of a transmission bushing in polymeric mat loaded with glass fibers.
I never treated polymers. ..when I have to insert the characteristics of material in "material models" what should I put? ?

structural linear or non-linear??? And then what? ?

It's urgent! ! !
Thank you! ! ! !

composite material?

 

[LUCA.85]

Yes, a polyamide 66 with 50% by weight of long glass fiber reinforcement

 

[volaff]

for composite materials I would say to use an orthotropic material not? !

 

[LUCA.85]

Yes, the problem is that in the technical sheet of the material is indicated the module and traction. .ansys asks ex ey ez and other constants. .
