Time step increments in ABAQUS

Submitted by s_gupta on Tue, 12/25/2012 - 06:13

HI everyone,

I am actually pretty confused about how to determine the correct time step increment in ABAQUS in a non-linear analysis. I first faced this problem when I used Hashins damage to capture in-plane shear response of the composite . The response which is bilinear graph depends a lot on the initial time step I give for the analysis i.e., for some time steps there is no bilinearity , only a single straight line. This has led to great confusion in my mind whether my model has a problem or whether ABAQUS itself has this problem.

Hai

I am full time research scholar likely to start modelling composite columns. Let me know which software i can prefer either ANSYS or ABAQUS. Help me in this regard those who are having experience.
