PhD position at ETH Zurich: Fracture growth in anisotropic rocks

Submitted by morteza.nejati on

A PhD position in the area of computational fracture mechanics is available at ETH Zurich, Switzerland. The aim of the project is to numerically simulate fracture propagation in anisotropic rocks during coupled thermo-hydro-mechanical processes. See attached for more details. 

How to automate surface creation in Abaqus ?

Submitted by rajan_prithivi on

I would like to create a surface (on top side of a cube) in Abaqus

I am aware of doing it manually by using the following in GUI :

 

1) Tools->Surface-> Create

2) Select regions for surface by the angle

 

This is what I tried and failed :

1.    Obtained all the nodes belonging to a face

2.    Obtained all the elements connected to the nodes of step 1

3.    Created an surface using the elements obtained in step 2 by appending the following lines in the .inp file
