ABAQUS

Hello,

I have to do a simulation with two loads, a constant static load and a dynamic load that rapidly decreases. What is the best way to handle this? Should I create two steps one for the static load and one for the dynamic load and let the static load propagate, or should I just have one step where the static loas acts instantly and the dynamic follows an aplitude?

The problem with the two step idea is that when I create the static load as static, I cannot get the choice of Dynamic/Explicit on the creation of the next step.

Any ideas

Hi all,

I'm trying to solve a frame structure in ABAQUS. I'm using 3D beam elements (B31) so that shear and bending stresses may appear. This is ok for an elastic analysis, but I also want to perform a failure analysis of this frame. Therefore, I'm trying to use the "concrete damaged plasticity" material in ABAQUS.  But I've read in the manual I can't use B31 elements with this material.

 Does anyone know how to combine the "concrete damaged plasticity" material in a 3D beam analysis? Any other suggestions?

Dear Abaqus Users;

Hello colleagues,

Iam trying to model load test on board pile. I have already a model which is working but not as I need. I think the interaction between pile and soil is not correctly defined. Has someone an experience with this issue.? How I should define the interaction between soil and pile?

Attached .inp file.

Hi all,

Please could  anyone help me for this?

How to link Abaqus CAE with UMAT subroutine? When I run simulation, it announced that 

when trying to submit a model for analysis i recieve an error as follows

1200 elements have missing property definitions. The elements have been identified in element set ErrElemMissingSection.

Error in job 4: Analysis Input File Processor exited with an error.

Job 4 aborted due to errors.

I have defined the material and then seeded it and defined the element before meshing it.I have also tried defining the element before defining the material and still get the same error.
