Section assignments for large assemblies in ABAQUS CAE

Submitted by jstello on
Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica

I am getting started with ABAQUS, and so far, I have had to assign a section property to every part of the assembly, which takes a long time for large assemblies. Often the entire assembly has the same section assignment. Is there a way to assign the same section to various instances?

 

I thank you all in advance.

 

 

Eigen package

Submitted by kajalschopra on

A genral eigen package must actuualy (according the book of Numerical recipees) must have choices of algorithms for the following cases of matrices;

1) Real,symmetric,triagonal

2) Real,symmetric,banded

3) Real,symmetric

4) Real,non-symmetric

5)Complex,hermitian

6)Complex, non hermitian

IS there any eigen package that considers the above choices?

How to capture "Jump" in a Runge-Kutta time marching solution?

Submitted by imechanicaid on

Dear friends,



When I run my MATLAB code to solve a nonlinear aeroelastic problem, solution diverges because of a "jump". I do expect a jump at this point, but I can not go through it and time marching solution stops. I appreciate any suggestion and help. 



Thank You So Much

Transferring data between two parallel running abaqus analyses

Submitted by s_gupta on

I want to take the deformation gradient tensor from one analysis and use it another analysis running parallel to it. I have really no clue how to do it. Although there are methods by which you can use the RESULTS of one analysis in another analysis but I just want to use just one/two particular variables like the one I mentioned.

I really appreciate any help related to this.... 

Question about Abaqus subroutine

Submitted by haotan on

Hey my frineds:

I'm working on a simulation project. First, I want to add an increasing boundary condition on the part, Then, I need to monitor the three principle stress to check whether it meets some partical condition, and stop the simulation.

How can I do this simulation by change the input file?

Thanks

Dear All,

 

I am very new to Abaqus. I only know little about pre-processing and post-processing approach.

 

I often heard about the using subroutine in Abaqus. Why should we use subroutines in Abaqus ?

 

Thanks 

How to get inside the ABAQUS incremental/nonlinear static solver

Submitted by mkajtaz on

Hi guys,



I'm working on an ABAQUS extension/plug-in of a sort and I'd like to replicate results for a single 4-node plane stress element produced by the ABAQUS incremental/nonlinear static solver.



I assumed the relationship is:

t[K] {Δx} = t+Δt {P} - t{F}



This is how I went to obtain these values:

[K] - element stiffness - by using *ELEMENT MATRIX OUTPUT
