| description | This thesis presents the application of Simulia Abaqus/CAE to model three
dimensional pepper waste mixed brick and to do finite element analysis in order to
find the effect of pores percentage on the internal stress distribution. This brick will
be modeled as elastic homogeneous isotropic material with random distribution of 0,
2, 5 and 10 Wt. % voids to represent the pores. Data are gathered using two methods;
three sets of horizontal nodes and another two sets for vertical nodes. Data gathered
for each type of pore composition will be compared to von Mises stress of
corresponding node from 0 Wt. % brick as the reference maximum stress. Failure
probability will be analyzed for each set of data and arranged in a table. This analysis
method will be used to determine the best pore composition for minimum failure
probability with most porosity as possible. Result is consistent with actual
experimental data which suggest 5 Wt. % brick as the best choice. |
