Hi all
Can anyone tell me how to extract abaqus results in radial and tangential stresses at a node??
Thanks

Thermomechanical coupled simulation
Hi all,
I am trying to input a termperature field as initial conditions in
abaqus, to use the temperature distribution from a previous temperature
simulation in an mechanical simulation. But when I check the Temperature
values in the mechanical simulation i get great differences between the
nodal values (NT) and the element values (TEMP).
Does anybody know the reason of this problem?
Can it be related to the element typ? So the TEMP values are the avereged values from NT?

Gradient bounds for Wachspress shape functions on polytopes
In this contribution (see http://arxiv.org/abs/1306.4385), we derive lower and upper bounds for Wachspress coordinates over any simple d-dimensional simple convex polytope. Numerical results for the Poisson equation on nontrivial polyhedral meshes are presented that affirm the linear rate of convergence in the energy seminorm of the polyhedral finite element method. Matlab code to compute the Wachspress shape functions and its gradient on convex polygonal and polyhedral elements is also provided.
Two recent papers on beam and plate theories considering microstructure and surface energy effects
