Why are all the deformations and strains 0 in my ANSYS LS-DYNA analysis?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on an issue in ANSYS LS-DYNA where all deformations and strains are recorded as zero after solving a model, despite high applied forces. Participants suggest checking the meshing quality, element types, material models, and the application of loads, particularly if the problem involves impacts. The importance of consistent units is also highlighted as a potential factor in the analysis results. Users are encouraged to verify the fixed points and load application methods to troubleshoot the issue. The conversation emphasizes the need for careful setup to avoid such analysis problems.

I want to do an analysis in ANSYS LS-DYNA. After applying element types, materials and loads to my model, I solved the problem. but after finishing the solution all of the deformations, plastic strains and ... are 0. (the applied force is very high and I expect to see rupture in a large area of my model) does anyone face this problem before? what's the result of this problem?

thanks

I'm not ANSYS expert but u may check the meshing quality, size and most importantly in ur case the fixed points
 
I need some assistance with calculating hp requirements for moving a load. - The 4000lb load is resting on ball bearing rails so friction is effectively zero and will be covered by my added power contingencies. Load: 4000lbs Distance to travel: 10 meters. Time to Travel: 7.5 seconds Need to accelerate the load from a stop to a nominal speed then decelerate coming to a stop. My power delivery method will be a gearmotor driving a gear rack. - I suspect the pinion gear to be about 3-4in in...
Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'
Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...
How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...
