Greeting to all iMechanicians,
Read Prof Alistair Borthwick's (University College Cork, Ireland) March 2012 editorial for ICE journal Engineering and Computational Mechanics for free here. Link http://www.icevirtuallibrary.com/content/article/10.1680/eacm.2012.165.1.1
This chapter summarizes our works on surface wrinkling of elastic thin films, taking a kinetics approach as a physical pathway to both ordered and disordered wrinkle patterns.
Since springs can be placed only between elements, to place several thousand springs on a 2D long wire shape model, I need to partition my model into thousands elements. Does anyone knows how to partition an element IN Abaqus CAE into desired number of elements, rather than dividing the elements in half and in half and in half until I get a certain number???thank you!
Is there a faster and more efficient way to partion my model in Abaqus CAE than using parameter input for edge partition? This way i can only keep splitting my element in 2, and in 2 and in 2 until I get the sufficient # of elements or until i get confused, wich ever comes first. For a long 2D wire shape models this really is an issue for me right now. If somebody can help me with this.... it would really make my day!Thanks a lot!
I am graduated from Physics departmentOran
University, Algeria in june 2000. Then I complete my MSc in the field of
material science from the Oran University, Algeria in November 2004. Recently I
complete Ph.D. thesis at the university of Duisburg-EssenUniversity germany,
thermodynamic department in July 2011 . In my PhD, I deal with the synthesis and characterization of the
functional doped metal oxides.
Hello,
I am a French student in "Prépa" et I have to imitate a crash test with Abaqus, a software which I am discrovering with this work. I begin with a very simplified model. I ceated 2 parts with Abaqus :
- the first, a simplified model of a bumper in steel (imported from SolidWork, Deformable, shell),
- the second, a plate in steel (Discrete rigid, shell, planar).
Is a good beginning ?
Dear All,
I have the problem. i created very simple example with two elements. To one element i prescribed the behaviour Mat1, to another element Mat2. I tried to use two different UMATS for this two elements.
I created Subroutine Myname.f, in which i use CMNAME if (CNMAME.EQ.'MAT1) THEN
CALl UMAT_1()
ELSE IF (CMNAME.EQ.'MAT2) THEN
CALL UMAT_2()
END IF
Then i put two UMATS in the same SUBROUTINES ,
But as a result the program gives MISTAKE , it says that The UMAT doesn't exist
What is the mistake?
Dear Colleagues
This is a gentle reminder that the final date for submission of abstracts to the
11th Global Congress on Manufacturing and Management GCMM 2012
has been extended to 31 March 2012.
You are cordially invited to submit a paper and be a part of this event.
Hi There,
I am a new user of Abaqus. Can anyone help me with sumbitting an adapticve process in Abaqus Command?
