Need an example of wave propagation in a plate using abaqus

Submitted by Hadishah on

Hi every body,I'm a senior student in mechanics and really I need an
example of wave propagation in a thin plate to conduct my project. At
now,main problem for me is how to apply load to get answers with
obvious wave propagtion contour plot without any thing more in just one
refelection.

Thanks in advance,

Hadishah

How is this possible in ABAQUS?

Submitted by Ahmad Falahatpisheh on

I am trying to run UHYPER in ABAQUS 6.9EF1. I have the following questions:



1) How can I get the nodes
ID associated
with element# NOEL in UHYPER subroutine?



2) How can I get the
coordinates of the displaced nodes associated with element# NOEL in UHYPER
subroutine in the middle of the simulation? I tried to use GETVRN but it seems it does not work in
UHYPER.

rigid body-deformable body contact in ABAQUS

Submitted by akmkhoda on

Hi:

 I was trying to model two beam. One is a cantiliver beam with horizontal axis and another one is beam like vertical axis rigid body. When I apply load to the 1st beam it should bend but should not exceed the rigid body. Buy in my model the 1st beam completly ignore the rigid body when deform. I am using Aabqus cae 6.9.

 Anyone has any suggestion or tips , please let me kmow.

Thanks

IMECE 2010 Student Travel Awards and Best Papers Contest

Submitted by H Jerry Qi on

The AMD executive committee (EC) just announced the student travel awards and best paper contest for IMECE 2010. Between 10 and 15 students will be selected for travel grants of $750 each. The students who receive travel awards will also become eligible to participate in the best paper contest. This is a great opportunity for young students to present their work and meet other researchers during IMECE 2010.

Surface Roughness Modelling

Submitted by msa4u on

My research objective is to import surface roughness (topography) data obtained from metrology instrument (in txt form) and to build a finite element model from this. can anyone has same experience as that of mine n can help me in this regard. do someone has matlab m-file to do this and can send me???

 

 

thanks in advance
