Author:Jansen van Rensburg, Gerhardus J; Kok, S; Wilke, DNDate:Oct 2016A constitutive model that captures the dominant strengthening and softening physics or microstructural changes of metallic materials is needed within a numerical environment for the effective prediction and simulation of plasticity during hot ...Read more
Author:Jansen van Rensburg, Gerhardus JDate:Sep 2016The Finite Element Method is a powerful tool that can be used to test, improve or better understand an industrially relevant problem. There are numerous Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software packages that operate either in the commercial, ...Read more
Author:Jansen van Rensburg, Gerhardus J; Kok, S; Wilke, DNDate:Jul 2012Tests were done on the compressive behaviour of different metal matrix composite materials. These extremely hard engineering materials consist of ceramic particles embedded in a metal alloy binder. Due to the high stiffness and brittle nature ...Read more
Author:Jansen van Rensburg, Gerhardus J; Bogaers, Alfred EJDate:Oct 2018During the optimal design and simulation of machining or forming processes, detailed simulation of structural response is typically required for use in Finite Element Analysis (FEA). In this study, the bulk temperature and rate dependent ...Read more
