Explosion Simulation Abaqus Tutorial

💥 Explosion Simulation Abaqus Tutorial: Master the Art of Simulating Explosions with Air Blast, Acoustic, Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian, and SPH 🚀

Welcome to the Explosion Simulation Abaqus Tutorial! Dive into the world of finite element analysis with a comprehensive course designed specifically for mechanical and civil engineering students or professionals looking to enhance their skills in simulation. This course is your key to mastering the theory behind input parameters, as well as the intricacies of modeling and analyzing explosions using Abaqus software.

🔥 What You Will Get:

• A structured learning path through 4 comprehensive sections.
• Hands-on experience with real-life examples for each section.
• Theory videos to complement your understanding.
• Detailed explanations of material theories in the initial sections – do not skip Section 1!

🚀 Section 1: Air-blast 🏗️

• Learn to use the CONWEP model for air-blast loading on solid and structural elements.
• Four real-life examples, including concrete structures, demonstrate the application of concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) and Johnson-Holmquist models.
• Explore the Hasin and Johnson-cook damage models through examples involving a car door and composite beam.

💧 Section 2: Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) Explosion Method 🌊

• Familiarize yourself with the SPH method, a meshless numerical technique.
• Model explosions on various structures like concrete beams and water tanks.
• Understand the SPH method's applications in scenarios such as bird strike on fuselage, jet engine, and gunpowder explosion in bullets.

🔄 Section 3: Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) Method 💣

• Master the CEL method, which combines Lagrangian and Eulerian approaches to overcome mesh limitations during simulations with extreme deformations.
• Simulate different explosion conditions on a variety of structures and materials, including soil, concrete beams, under-ground pipelines, and aeroplane wings.

🌊 Section 4: Underwater Explosion (UNDEX) 🐠

• Learn to simulate underwater explosions and their impact on marine structures like submarines and ships.
• Use ductile and shear damage models within Abaqus for these specialized simulations.

📚 Course Structure: The course is divided into four sections, each building upon the previous one. It is essential to follow the course in order to fully grasp the concepts as all material theories are introduced in Section 1.
