I am new ABAQUS user, i want to learn ABAQUS for the analyis of failure of material i.e fracture, creep and fatigue. my aim is get analysis of a fatigue analysis of rotating and bending welded alloy. can you please help me in doing this analysis on ABAQUS.........please send any fatigue tutorial of ABAQUS..

Hello everyone,

I am using python scripts to extract the field output (displacements) in a nodeset (which was defined in the model) and it does not seem that difficult but I have a question regarding reading output data for a especial coordinate (x,y,z location) and not the node label since when you change the discretization you lose the previous node labels. Does anyone have any idea how to do so?

Hi everyone , 

I'm Yashaswi Prateek  doing by final year project on fracture in composites using ABAQUS. I'm new to ABAQUS and have been trying to do some tutorials to get a better understanding of the software. After basic tutorials , i've started trying to generate a model using cohesive elements where i got stuck up. I have tried the procedure in Abaqus user manual and is showing some errors regarding interaction properties and creating a step.  It would be great help if someone could help me regarding how to model with cohesive elements.

Provide computational support in structural mechanics and heat transfer for the design of electromagnets operating at ~90% of yield strength with power densities up to 15 W/mm^3. 

My name is Ali , I have a PhD degree in materials engineering, Mechanical Technology Department , Rey Juan Carlos University , Madrid , Spain.

My thesis was focused on the phenomenon of stress cracking. Also, i have previous experience working on nanocomposite materials. I am looking forward for a research fellowship.

I am familiar with, mechanical testing, fracture of HDPE resins, physical-chemical characterization of polymers, tribological behavior of nanocomposites, FEM analysis (ANSYS)

How to join the node between two part  for example wire planar 3D and plate 3D? I have probem when assemble ABAQUS stated 2 nodes do not coincide.

I have difficulty in constraint between 2 parts.

I have tried inb MPC, TIE CONSTRAINT , MERGE CUT but all not succesfully done.
