Hi everyone,
Is there any way to measure angle between two spring elements in abaqus assembly module?
Kindly help me.
Thanx.

Hi everyone,
Could anyone let me know if it is possible to connect two reference points with a line in the assembly module of Abaqus?
I could find only a wire feature or a spring element feature.
Kindly help me.
Thanx.
Abaqus - uniformly meshing a sphere
Forums

Hi,
I have a small problem in generating a mesh for a sphere in abaqus.
I
am able to create a sphere using a 3D shell geometry, but I am unable
to uniformly mesh it. All I can see is an irregular mesh with
quadrilateral elements. I wanted to use hexahedral elements for the
sphere with uniform meshing and I tried using 'create bottom - up
mesh', but of no use.

Sorry guys, I know I've done it a long time ago. Can't figure it out now. Please help.

Finite element programming for multiple load steps
Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica
Hello Everybody
I am in need of help in including multiple load step options in my c program which is a fem solver for contact(2D).
I do not understand how to go for second load step after the 1st one.
Its not clear for me what all i have to do, one thing i know is updating the nodal locations.
Please help me on this or guide to the place where ir can get help.
Thank You
Material Modelling
Hi all,
I doing modelling on soft clay behaviour which exhibit softening behaviour during constant strain loading. Here i followed a non-associated flow rule for better prediction of dilation . For the case of non-associated flow rule yield function and plastic potential function should not same i clear in that , my doubt is that we can use two different surface for yield and plastic potential function (eg: linear surface as yield surface and elliptical surface as plastic potential )?
Analytical elastic-plastic solutions for the torsion of a round bar with a heterogeneous cross section
Hello,
I am trying to derive/find an analytical expression
for the torsion of a round bar made of an heterogeneous material. But I just do
not seem to find any solution available in the literature other than for a
homogeneous material, which can be find in any theory of plasticity book (e.g.
Theory of Plasticity, 3rd Ed., J. Chakarabarty, pp. 132-136).
