Hello,
Suppose I want to glue a flat piece of sheet metal onto the outside of a rigid cylinder, and then find out the pressure that the glue is exerting onto the surface of the sheet metal. Assume that the deformation is elastic. Or suppose that in a variation of this problem, the sheet metal were instead glued to a wavy surface that was also able to elastically deform. Would APDL or Workbench be better for these analyses? What features of those programs would you recommend for these analyses?
Thank you very much!
