Conducting a Spotweld Failure Analysis
expn exps •
| fn | | fs |
When the fn and fs values satisfy
1 this equation, the weld will fail.
Only a tensile force is considered
sn ss for the normal direction.
• Now it is time to define the displacement load applied to the top edge of the top
plate in the +Y direction. To save time, some prerequisite steps have already been
done for you. The explicit time (etime) and displacement (ydisp) arrays have been
defined, along with the nodal component (npull) that the displacement load is
applied to.
• The Variable Viewer will come up automatically, but the active results file will be
spot.rst, instead of spot.his, since the former was used in POST1 already. Although
both results files can be used in POST26, the latter usually contains data saved more
frequently. Further, the ASCII output files processed by the EDREAD command (e.g.,
the glstat file) actually use the time values stored on the Jobname.HIS file.
