Prerequisite: Basic Training in elasticity and a proficiency building models, solving (linear analysis) and post-processing. This advanced 2-day course is designed to achieve the following objectives: Develop a comprehensive understanding of the StressCheck GUI and pre- and post-processing capabilities for performing detail analyses for composite structure. How to create laminate-orthotropic material property records and assign them to element sets in Cartesian or cylindrical coordinate systems How to use Mapped Laminate material assignment to align ply orientation with the general curvature of an element How to use the Automatic Lamination wizard to build ply stacks and assign the stack to a set of elements How to construct parametric models of typical composite joints and details (e.g. T-stiffened skins, bonded lap/scarf joints, Pi-joints, etc...) How to model singularities (e.g. ply terminations, adhesive run-outs, etc...) How to use the Failure Criteria interface to combine mechnical and thermal strains This course has a 40 minute lecture presenting an overview on capabilities and functionality in StressCheck related to laminated composites. The remainder of the time is hands-on, building and solving problems covering a wide range of practical applications. ESRD offers training on-site (at your facility) or at our facility.
