Hello,

I am working on testing of rubber couplings. I have a problem, that while doing torsional test of the coupling, we are getting different values of stiffness with change in time. Even if we do the testing and then take a small break of 10-20 minutes, then also after 20 minutes I am getting different values.

My question is, that is it possible because of Mullin effect? If so, How can we check that the rubber couplings that I have are filled or not( one piece rubber or filler with some other elastomer)? 

Hi,

I'm trying to do simulation on Abrasive sand paper. I want to calculate the amount of material removed from the workpiece after some  number cycles.

 Can any one help me how can I start this simulation in abaqus.

Can anyone help me to run simulation of a coaxial cylinder using restart analysis in ABAQUS standard version 6.8.

Hello Dr. scientists

I want to study nonlinear behavior of williams toggle frame by finite element method.

I use of load control method and my results is a little different. is it reasonable that I change to displacement control. if ok please help me on useful literature in this topic. 

thanks in advance.

Hi there,

Recently I had lots of problem with linking ABAQUS and Fortran compiler together. I did all of the things which has been described in forums but none of them worked for me. Finally I found the solution.

I'm using ABAQUS 6.12-3, Visual Studio 2012 Professional and Intel Composer XE Suites 2013. For linking them simply follow these steps:

1- find the file ifortvars.bat and its path.

Dear Colleague,



Engineering and Computational Mechanics is currently looking for papers on the theme of Disaster and Hazard engineering for publication in 2014. Sub-topics include risk analysis and pre-emptive disasters.

Other themes EACM is interested in are: Fluid Structure interaction especially ringing phenomenon; Energy and renewable energy including offshore and waves; and review papers covering the themes in the call for papers.
