Abstract:
uniUnit - unify system of units
In FEM and other similar simulation techniques, keeping consistent units is a tedious work and almost everyone made this kind of mistake one or two times. Therefore, here I propose a package for dealing with this problem once and for all.
The idea of the package is simple, you tell me what is the system of units you want. Then, tell me the correct number in any system of units. All is done! The package will try to print out the value in you specified system of units.
Here is some examples:
2D corotational beam
hello Dear friends
I am phd student in mechanical engineering. I want to compare field consistent total lagrangian
and corotational formulation for geometrically nonlinear 2D beam analysis. I wrote
a code for total lagrangian approach and my results are exct but in corotational
I have some difficulties in coding. if someone has a sample corotational code please
contact with me.
Symposium on Architected Materials at Mach 2015
We are pleased to announce the symposium "Design, Fabrication and Characterization of Architected Materials" at the upcoming 2015 Mach Conference (http://machconference.org). A full description of the symposium is provided below. Abstracts are due December 5, though please let us know if you are interested in participating but need additional time to prepare the abstract.
VUMAT Error
I have VUMAT code for visco-plasticty material.
When I use this code for abaqus 6.10 input file it works fine.
If i create same problem(one element check) in abaqus 6.13 and run in cluster with abaqus 6.11 it is not working.
Getting error like below.
***ERROR: Floating Point Exception detected in increment 2722. Job exiting.

ABAQUS - Jointed material model
Hello all:
I have bee trying to run the benchmarks problems, but for some reason I'm unable to obtain the expected results. I'm trying the built the strength envelope that is presented in the manual. The envelope defines different maximum axial stress depending on the orientation of the discontinuities with respect of the loading direction.
Rubber Adhesion Behaviour
Dear everyone
My project is about the adhesional friction between rubber and a rigid surface. In this case I have modeled a block of rubber which is sliding on a real rough rigid surface in ABAQUS.
