Weld Fatigue analysis based on the Dang Van Criteria

Numerical modeling of fatigue behavior has become critical for welding applications. For this purpose the ‘Dang Van criterion’ has been integrated in SYSWELD for fatigue evaluation of welded structure under multi-axial loadings. The Dang Van fatigue damage criterion is used to predict crack initiation and life duration of components subjected to damaging load. This criterion is based on multi-scale approach which assumes that shakedown occurs before crack initiation.

Materials in the database - Which material properties to use with respect to the three methods to simulate the heat effects of welding

A material is described with exactly one set of material properties. In simulation engineering - depending on the applied method and the moment in time when the simulation is carried out in the product development cycle - only subsets of a full material data set might be required. In this article is outlined which subset is used for which purpose, what is available in the database, and what can be simulated.

How to fix grey selection window in PAM-STAMP GUI ?

Using default setup of AERO themes in Windows 7 and Vista creates problems for selection by window in PAM-STAMP GUI. There are instructions how to setup your Windows to avoid that problem.

The challenge of simulating casting and heat treatment

Foundries that have implemented casting simulation to shorten development time, further wish to use simulation in order to reduce the cost of subsequent processing steps. This often requires the simulation of heat treatment.
