Finite Element Analysis for incipient Flow of Bulk Solid in a Diamondback Hopper
Osama Saada
University of Florida, USA
This research was used as part of a PhD dissertation at the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department at the University of Florida. In this research a Finite Element Approach to solve for displacements, velocities and stresses of a bulk material in a diamondback hopper based on a visco-plastic model, was proposed. The Abaqus FEA product suite was used to write a user defined subroutine to describe the visco-plastic behavior.
