Hello Experts,
Currently I am working on a flange analysis. Need to check the strength of the both flange while in operation. problem is in between them there is a nylon gasket, which is used as a sealant. so my question is can I use the use nylon gasket properties in static analysis.Will it work Or do i have to go for non-linear anlysis.
I am not concern about how much deflection it would be for nylon gasket or what would happen to it?
if the nylon is small displacement, in the linear range of the material, should not need nonlinear analysis
but in the real world, these are assumptions, the real world is nonlinear and transient
