*MATRIX GENERATE - Global Stiffness matrix

Submitted by salingerv on

Thank you  for your reply. I know but I was wondering if it is possible to omit them manually.

 One more question, I figured that using *MATRIX GENERATE, one could get the global stiffness, mass or load matrix in a ".mtx" file. But I am wondering why I can't get the file after the run.

plotting force- displacement

Submitted by Pooria kh on

Dear friends

I want to plot force-displacement figure for simulation of axial impact in Abaqus;  after using reference points for defining the
displacement and force in tubes and plates , I encounter
two problems:

1)      1)Amount of forces are
negative.

2)      2)I need to filter the figure
because forces have some vibrations in the figure and they are not zero  after rebounding;
they have sine form. So, I have to filter them?

Please let me know how to solve
it.

Topic 53: Health, safety, environmental and cost issues regarding operation, disposal, and re-use of decommisioned plants

Submitted by Azeezat on

In some years to come a large proportion of the offshore
platform will need to be decommissioned. Can we discuss the health, safety, environmental and cost issues as
regards the operation,disposal, and any potential re-use of decommisioned plants and structures?

XFEM convergence problem(the problem has converged, along Meshsize not...)

Submitted by zsc13810288137 on

Hallo,

i have the following problem, when i refine the mesh of Mode I fracture with XFEM, the Force Displacement curve seems not to converge.

Mesh Size:

15*15

25*25

51*51

75*75

the reaction force is going to be smaller and smaller...

can somebody help me? thank u very much!!
