Problem in Abaqus

Submitted by Farhana Abedin on

Hello

I am trying to learn Abaqus but I am facing some problems. I will be very much grateful if you  kindly give the solutions of the following problems.

 I want to know,

 1. How to assign two different areas on a two dimensional part?

2. How to tie different parts and locate coincident nodes at the boundaries of instances on the assembly?

3. How to merge coincident nodes?

I really want to learn it, please help me.

Thank you.

Earthquake in West China and lessons for us!

Submitted by RoozbehSanaei on

In Singapore, I have seen students who lost their relatives in last earthquake. I am very sorry about this, but I think there should be lessons for us in such disasters.  Is'nt any cheap and easy way to reinforce building in the face of earthquakes? I hope such disasters make researchers concentrate on such important topics.

i am searching for the paper "Dundurs, J, Elastic interation of dislocations with inhomogeneities, Mathematical theory of dislocations". If you have this paper, please send it me (eng999 [at] hanmail.net (eng999[at]hanmail[dot]net)). I can't find this paper.

Creep and Material Property Correlations

Submitted by wharju2 on

Hey all, I'm looking for a method of determining creep properties of polymer products that is faster than applying a stress to them for an extended period of time.  Is anyone aware of any relations between more quickly/easily attainable material properties and creep properties?  Or is there any way to simulate an extended life test in a shorter amount of time?

Thanks for you help,

How to use mohr-coulomb criterion to simulate the indentation of BMGs in ABAQUS?

Submitted by KevinGE on

I encounter a big challenge now.

I wanna use mohr-coulomb criterion to simulate the indentation of BMGs in ABAQUS.However, there are many parameters confusing me.

We know the  mohr-coulomb can be written as:

                            τc=k0-ασn

Wikipedia style publication in a categorized manner!

Submitted by RoozbehSanaei on

First excuse me for my poor English. Wikipedia-Style Open publish (suggested by Mike Ciavarella) can be a logical solution for many of Current publication and evaluation system problems, currently we utilize popularity for “quality warranty” and “Ranking” of papers and authors. Such factor can be a measure for evaluating the papers and authors in the new style too. The reliability of papers can even increase by this way more, Categorization of scientific papers is one of necessities of today’s scientific network.
