Is there anyone who models the Lamb's problem using abaqus ?

Submitted by hunanyangdong on

       As we know, 
Lamb's problem is a basic one in elastic dynamics. It can be demonstrated by a pulse applied to a half-space. Through analysis solution, one can see the sequential arrival of P wave, S wave and Rayleigh wave at a ponit which is far enough from the loading point. This phenomenon is due to the different velocities of P wave, S wave and Rayleigh wave.

        Now, I want to model the lamb problem with abaqus. But I fail to get the same result with analysis solution. Can anyone help me?

Sequential change of some parts in a Abaqus input file and running the code for each.

Submitted by Hidroxid on

Hello everyone,

I am trying to run some simulation in abaqus, I need to change some input variables and run the code for new values and this should be an automatic process not by hand every time.

Now I want to check if there is any way to change some parts in a abaqus .inp (input) file (say the Forces or other BC's) and execute the code again in abaqus and store the results of each simulation.

 

Thanks in advace,

Abstract:

difficulties in modeling elastoplastic damage behavior of rock salt

Submitted by Chao Du on

Dear all,

I want to construct a constitutive relation to model the elastoplastic damage behavior of rock salt which is considered as an excellent host medium for gas storage facilities. Because rock salt is a kind of typical geomaterials, confinement sensitive and inclusion effect should be considered in the constitutive model. However, I have encountered many difficulties in the course of the study. There are some issues I am a little confused.

The “Michigan Nano Computational Cluster” (MNC2) consists of 14 nodes.
Each compute node contains a hexa-core Intel Xeon X5660 processor
running at 2.66 GHz, 24 GB of memory. MNC2 contains 168 processing cores
linked with Gigabit ethernet, 12 TB of disk space.

 MNC2 currently hosts simulation tools for micro/nanoscale systems
including codes for first principles calculation, photonic devices,
molecular dynamics, multiphysics, and multiscale modeling.

The Cluster is free for use. Researchers interested in using the cluster,
