ALE remeshing

ABAQUS ALE gives random solution

Hi all,

 

I am simulating an excavation problem using the ALE method. If I rerun exactly the same input file only changing the duration of the last (long) step and compare results of the two analyses at the same analysis time I get significantly different results (e.g. up to 20% different settlements). I have tried changing the last step duration and I get different results again. How can this be? I am really worried about this behaviour!

Hi every body,

i am trying to use Abaqus/Explicit to simulate a sharp penetration using ALE formulation included in Ver. 6.6, but what ever i do the remeshing module doesn't work. if any body has any information and experience about this kind of simulation i would be pleased to use it as a guid in my analysis.

Best regards

Hassan
