✍️ In this video lecture, we present a brief introduction about the importance of creep in industrial design. Also, we introduce a research project for further reading. Furthermore, we are going to get familiar with some basic terms and models for creep calculations in material science. The phenomenon of creep is the origin of many challenges in the design of industrial parts. The first step to deal with these challenges is to find some methods to predict the residual life of industrial components which are operating in a critical condition (high thermal and mechanical loads for a long time).
⭐ Creep Analysis | ANSYS Tutorial ⭐
✍️ In this tutorial, we are going to use ANSYS Workbench to simulate the creep deformation of an Aluminum Alloy (6061-T6) under constant stress and temperature. We will learn about the simulation of a Creep process in ANSYS Mechanical and analysis settings for Creep. For creep analysis, we will use Norton’s power law equation, which is the most important and widely used constitutive equation to predict the secondary Creep. We will see how to adjust the define material properties and settings of creep analysis in the static structural environment like creep effects, load steps, initial conditions, Creep Limit Ratio and Creep Strain Ratio.
