node material property common

Hi,

 

I am having a conceptual doubt regarding the following case. Any suggestions are appreciated. We are here assuming linear elastic material.

 

 Let's say I have two bodies with different properties, and they share a common node (as in the attachment). However, I want to perform an analysis without any coupling or contact phenomena. Let's say thermal expansion of the bodies.So while doing the FEA analysis, I can assign the material properties in the element stiffness according to the body elements and solve.

 

free autoCAD software compatible with Abaqus ?

software

Dear all,

 I need a free autoCAD software to model the complex 3D geometry of human brain.  It is desirable that this software should generate output files readable to Abaqus/CAE for mesh generation.  I wonder whether these is such a software available.  An alternative way is to handle the geometrical modeling myself but I need to know the details of the file format used by Abaqus/CAE.  Does anyone have a clue?

Thank you very much!

Yasheng
