Modelling and generation (-Geo modules) / Re: Difference between Without Fiber Overlap and Prohibit Fiber Overlap

« on: June 07, 2021, 10:42:34 AM »

Hi Tabea,
The underlying algorithms: "Prohibit ..." creates non-overlapping fibers directly, while "Without ..." creates overlapping fibers first and removes the overlap afterwards. In most cases, "Without..." is better: Faster + higher SVF possible.

Hi,
can ElastoDict only solve linear-ealstic problems? Or can I also simulate plastic deformation?
Thanks

Modelling and generation (-Geo modules) / Error during generation of endless fibers

« on: June 01, 2021, 11:50:59 AM »

Hi,
I want to generate endless fibers in FiberGeo but GeoDIct gives the following error message: "A short fiber of maximal size might overlap with itself in a periodic domain." what do I have to do?
Thanks

Analysis (-Find modules) / Segment by fiber diameter

« on: May 28, 2021, 02:02:46 PM »

Hi,
I have a fiber structure on which I ran FiberFind (analytic). The fibers have different diameters and I want to assign the fibers to different three classes depending on their diameter. Is there an easy way to do that?
Thanks
Martina

Structural Material Modeling and Analysis / Re: Model of a layer with unidirectional fibers

« on: May 28, 2021, 01:58:30 PM »

Hi Tabea,
under the "fiber Options" tab, set the Orientation for the fibers to "Given Directions" and enter the direction as vector.Or use "Angle in XY-Plane" and set the angle to e. g. 0°.
