3.f Enter the following values:

Density = 2710 kg m^-3 Youngs Modulus = 7e10 Pa Poissons Ratio = 0.30 Yield Strength = 2.9e8 Pa Tangent Modulus = 0.0 Pa
Since the material is sufficiently defined, the blue question marks and yellow fields are no longer present in the data table.
Note: The resulting stress-strain curve is elastic perfectly plastic. No strain hardening can develop.
WS 2-7

3.g Return to the Project Schematic
Training Manual
3.h Save the Project by selecting the Save As ... icon and Browse to the directory indicated by your instructor. Use the name empty_soda_can for the Project name.
Note: Saving the Project saves all of the important files. The Project may also be Archived, in which all of the supporting files are compressed and saved in one file.
WS 2-8
Step 4 Import and Modify the Geometry
Training Manual
4.a Import the geometry by the procedure shown. Do NOT Double Click on the Geometry cell ...
RMB
SC
4.b Browse to the DesignModeler 11.0 SP1 geometry file named: soda_can_filled_110.agdb
4.c Workbench has now identified the geometry file (note green checkmark in Geometry cell). It is now OK to Double Click on Geometry, as the new default action is to Edit the geometry. Default actions are shown in bold type after RMB selects.

Step 5 Edit the Model in Mechanical

5.a Edit the model in Workbench Mechanical.
Training Manual
Since Edit is the default action, double-clicking on the Model cell is also acceptable here.
RMB
SC
5.b Select the MKS Units system

Recall that Mechanical is not native in Workbench, so the Units here may not match the Project Units
Note: Although the unit system used for data entry and post-processing is the MKS system, the actual unit system used by the AUTODYN solver is the mm-mg-ms system, because it provides higher accuracy. This will be shown later when the Analysis Settings are discussed.
WS 2-11
Step 5 Edit the Model in Mechanical ...

Training Manual
5.c Define the Aluminum Can properties:

Stiffness Behavior = Flexible Thickness = 0.00025 meters Material Assignment = My_Aluminum
5.d Define the Punch and Die properties:

Stiffness Behavior = Rigid Material Assignment = Structural Steel
Rigid Steel Punch (moved downwards) Flexible Aluminum Soda Can (crushed) Rigid Steel Die (fixed)

WS 2-15
Step 7 Define the Analysis Settings
Training Manual
7.a Specify the Analysis Settings:
SC
End Time = 6.0e-4 seconds Automatic Mass Scaling = Yes Minimum CFL Time Step = 1.0e-7 sec
7.b Set the Solve Units = mm, mg, ms Note: The mm, mg, ms unit system is the most accurate in most simulations, so it is the only one currently available. Although more solver unit systems will be available in the future, any unit system in the drop-down list may be used to enter data and/or display the results.
WS 2-16
Step 7 Define the Analysis Settings ...
Training Manual
7.c Keep the remaining defaults Note: There are multiple ways to control the erosion of an element. In this case, the element will only fail when the geometric strain reaches 150%. 7.d Use the default number of data sets to save during the solution. Depending on the analysis, this number may need to be increased, but that requires additional disk space, so be judicious here.
WS 2-17
Step 8 Apply BCs and External Loads
Training Manual
RMB SC
SC
8.a Fix the Steel Die (base):

Select the Body filter Insert a Fixed Support under Explicit Dynamics Select the steel die Apply the selection

SC
8.b Displace the Steel Punch

Insert a Displacement under Explicit Dynamics Select the steel die Apply the selection
WS 2-19
Step 8 Apply BCs and External Loads ...
Training Manual
8.c Specify the vertical (Y) displacement to be a Tabular load and set both the X and Z displacements to be zero. 8.d Ramp the Y displacement as follows: Time = 0.0 sec Y = 0.0 meters Time = 5e-4 sec Y = -0.060 meters Time = 6e-4 sec Y = -0.030 meters
Note: The punch speed and abrupt change in direction are unrealistic, but sufficient for demonstration purposes. Normally, the movement would be prescribed according to a SINE wave function.
WS 2-20
Step 9 Insert Result Items to Postprocess
Training Manual
9.a Insert a Total Deformation plot request under the Solution branch.
RMB SC SC
SC
9.b Insert an Equivalent
(von-Mises) Stress

Training Manual
RMB SC SC
9.c Insert an Equivalent Plastic Strain plot request under the Solution branch. 9.d Save the Project again.
SC Note: Even though a single time point (at the end of the run) is specified, the complete set of results can be viewed, including animations. Recall that the default output controls (20 equally spaced time points) was retained under the Analysis Settings branch.
WS 2-22
Step 10 Run the AUTODYN Simulation SC
Training Manual
10.a Select Solver Output under Solution Information and Solve the simulation.
The Solver Output shows the run statistics, including the estimated clock time to completion. Any errors or warnings are also noted. Termination due to wrapup time reached is expected here.
WS 2-23
Step 10 Run the AUTODYN Simulation ...

10.b Select Energy Summary under Solution Information to review the global statistics. Note the abrupt changes in kinetic energy due to the unrealistic loading scenario ...
Training Manual
TIME = 5.0e-4 seconds occurs around 3200 cycles into run Constant velocity after starting from rest
WS 2-24
Step 11 Review the Results
Training Manual
11.a Select Total Deformation and Show the Elements under True Scale. The maximum deformation (-0.060 m) exceeds the punch value due to the momentum involved (i.e., an excessive punch speed was used to reduce the required computer run time).
SC
WS 2-25
Step 11 Review the Results ...
Training Manual
11.b Animate the results by setting the controls as shown below and then pressing the Animation button. For transient dynamics, the default Distributed mode is inadequate, as it linearly interpolates between saved results. The Result Sets mode is optimal, as it uses the actual saved data. To review a static result, just click on the desired Time or Value from the Tabular Data and use the RMB to pick Retrieve This Result. The given state will then be shown.
Pick these 2 first Pick this to Then pick this save the animation To retrieve a given result ...
RMB
WS 2-26
Step 11 Review the Results ... SC
Training Manual
11.c Repeat the procedure, if desired, for the von-Mises equivalent stress results. Note: No stress can develop in a rigid body. The punch and die are each condensed out to a mass at their respective centers of gravity with six DOFs active.
Contact is based on the exterior surface, so a six DOF body can have a complicated contact surface.
WS 2-27
Step 11 Review the Results ...
Training Manual
11.d Repeat the procedure one last time for the equivalent plastic strain results.
SC
11.e. Hide the Punch and Die for a better view of the results. Per the Analysis Settings, erosion does not occur until the geometric strain is 1.50
RMB
SC
WS 2-28
Step 12 Review the Output Files
Training Manual
12.a Pick Files under the View menu to access the Project files 12.b Select Open Containing Folder via the RMB option for the AUTODYN print file (admodel.prt).
RMB
WS 2-29
Step 12 Review the Output Files ...

12.c Double click on the file admodel.prt
Training Manual
12.d As noted earlier, the solver units system was mm-mg-ms in order to maximize the accuracy. After the Simulation is done, the results are converted back into the current Mechanical units system.
WS 2-30
Training Manual
12.e The AUTODYN print file also contains the
Material Summary
information and run statistics. The Energy and Momentum are shown on both a material basis and a Part basis (shown here).
WS 2-31
Training Manual
12.f The Energy and Momentum Balance, Mass Scaling, and Run Times are also included in the admodel.prt file.
12.g No mass was added to the model, since the time steps were all above the Minimum CFL Time Step of 1.0e-7 sec set in Step 7.a under Analysis Settings
WS 2-32
Training Manual
12.h Close the admodel.prt file and review the setup.log file in the same directory (F:\exp_dyn\soda_can\empty_soda_can_files\dp0\SYS\MECH).
12.i The setup.log file contains the information pertaining to the transfer of data from the Explicit Dynamics (ANSYS) Analysis System to the AUTODYN Cycle Zero file, which is then run by the AUTODYN solver. 12.j Close the file and return to the Mechanical window (i.e., view the model itself again).
WS 2-33
Step 13 Generate a Report
Training Manual
13.a Click on the Solution branch in the Project tree and then click on the Report Preview tab at the bottom of graphics window. ANSYS does the rest! It will now automatically generate a report by going through the entire tree and summarizing the model and the results.
WS 2-34
Step 13 Generate a Report ...

13.b The model properties are summarized, including volume, mass, centroid, and moment of inertia properties.
Training Manual
13.c Loading information is also shown in clear table format.
WS 2-35
Training Manual
13.d Even the energy plots are conveniently assembled into the report.
WS 2-36

13.e The results data is shown. 13.f Finally, SAVE the model and exit ANSYS.
