Hi,
I am modelling installation (Jacking) of concrete pile (rigid body) in soil (Eulerian soil) which involves large deformations.
For jacked pile contact friction is considered as zero.
Inorder to cope up with large deformation which occur during pile penetration process kinematic contact fomulation is used, this formulation is based of master-slave principle implemented in ABAQUS.
When I run the analysis i am encountering with following error:
Hi there,
Recently I have modelled a 2D block of soil, at the first step of analysis the soil block subjected to a gravitational load (Gravity) and gravitational stresses generated in the soil block, at the second step, a little rectangular part of soil block removed and currently a concrete block with same size of removed soil embedded on the soil block. this concrete block to be subjected a surface loading.
How can we derive dynamic beam equation from navier equation in elastodynamic? I tried with the displacement vector field:
u=-z*w(x,t)
v=0
w=w(x.t)
and put it in navier equation, but it does not work.
Hi all,
I am trying to run a VUMAT subroutine for isotropic hardeining, whenever I input the command "abaqus j=inp_name user=subroutine_name " the analysis begins, the ODB file is generated but in few secs the analysis exits with an error, and the error is..
Abaqus Error: The executable C:\ABAQUS\6.7-1\exec\explicit.exe
aborted with system error code 5.

Hi, I am wondering if anyone can give me suggestion on the following problem.
I would like to do Frequency response study on a viscoelastic material. The frequency response computation usually takes a modal damping ratio. However the viscoelatic material is defined by K (elastic bulk modulus), G0 (short-time shear modulus), Gi (long-time shear modulus) and Beta (decay constant).
Is there a way to find the modal damping ratio from the time domain viscoelastic material parameters (K, G0, Gi and Beta)? E.g. in a FEM environment?
Thanks.
Hi all ... i have been doing element deletion extensively in my analysis but was wondering ... wat are the Pros and Cons of using this method. To my knowledge was wondering how the deleted mass and energy are conserved through out the analysis. Thank you all.
Hi,
Is it possible to use 2-D finite elements capable of accurately predicting all stresses (three dimensional stress state) for 3-D crack growth simulation?
