Nodal stress and strain history output from Abaqus
Hi everyone,
I am trying to get the history output of strain and stress tensor components at a node. However after analysis is finished no such data are saved in the result section. I think Abaqus only gives the stress and strain for elements and not at nodes. Any help would be highly appreciated. Please consider that I am a new abaqus use.
Thank you in advance
Computational Biomechanics for Medicine IX: a MICCAI 2014 satellite workshop. First call for papers
This year we are again organising the Computational Biomechanics for Medicine (CBM) Workshop (http://school.mech.uwa.edu.au/CBM2014/) together with the Medical Image Computing and Computer Assisted Intervention Conference (MICCAI) (http://www.miccai2014.org/). This year, the workshop will be hosted by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Boston, USA, on 14th September 2014.
Simulation-based numerical optimization of arc welding process for reduced distortion in welded structures
This paper presents an effective numerical approach for welding process
parameter optimization to minimize weld-induced distortion in
structures. A numerical optimization framework based on coupled Genetic
Algorithm (GA) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is developed and
implemented for a low and a high fidelity model. Classical weakly
coupled thermo-mechanical analysis with thermo-elasto-plastic
assumptions is carried out for distortion prediction of numerical
models. The search for optimum process parameters is executed by direct
integration of numerical models and GA-based optimization technique. The
developed framework automatically inserts the process parameters into
the simulation models, executes the FE-based welding simulations and
Will structural disorder in amorphous material change under mechanical loading?
I would appreciate your comments or pointing to something in the literature on whether mechanical loading changes the magnitude of structural disorder (may be rdf could be a measure) in amorphous materials. Does tension increase 'amorphous-ness' and is the opposite true for compression? Since the network structure is random, should tension and compression yield the same effect (if any)?
I am assuming elastic loading/unloading only.
Many thanks!!

Modeling associative Tresca plasticity in ABAQUS?
Hi
I have a simple question. How could I model associative Tresca plasticity in ABAQUS?
I use Property module: material editor: Mechanical:Plasticity:Mohr Coulomb Plasticity
I know that In the case (friction angle=0) of the Mohr-Coulomb model reduces to the pressure-independent Tresca model with a perfectly hexagonal deviatoric section.
Applying Periodic Boundary Conditions(PBC) in Abaqus
Hi all,
I am looking for some reference on procedures for applying PBC in abaqus? I coud find some journal articles for the equation, but I am unaware of applying this into Abaqus under displacement laoding conditions..
any help in this regard would be appreciated greatly..
Thanks,
Bernad
