nylon simulation board

[ecto]

Good morning.

I should simulate a static load of a nylon handlebar pa6 gf30. I would like to know which software msc marc and nastran is the most suitable.
I used the first at university years ago and I remember that it was very suitable for large deformations (so elastomers) and contact problems.

Thank you.

Does anyone have any idea?

Well, it depends on how much you have to load.
you can do a static analysis, if you stay in the elastic field, or you can do a simple nonlinear, if you go to the plastic field but do not huge deformations, sol 106.
or you can use marc or sol 600 (which is nothing but marc), if you have such great deformations that put in crisis the geometry of the element.
depends on what you are looking for and the problem you need to set, it is not that you explain a lot to us with your question.

hello wave,

I think I'm charging him in such a way as not to go to the plastic field. So linear simulation right?
instead sol106 if I plan to plasticize polymer?
As for the grid elements type 7 right?

Thank you very much for the answer

If you're in the linear and non-plastic field sol 101 is fine. If you go to the plastic field you can use 106 (old) or the newest ones that include marc, depends on your license,
What do you mean elements like 7?
7 knots? better than tetraedi to 4 knots certainly, worse than brick to 8 knots.. .
depends on geometry from what you simulate, you are a little bit of information to be able to respond well

Hi.

I meant brick at 8 exact knots! It's all clear.
Thanks for the answers!The geometry is quite simple, I only have some variation of section compared to a cylindrical tube. . .
