Hi All

I have to model a beam stracture by beam element (wire) in ABAQUS/CAE, but I don't know about beam normals(N1 , N2). Tha results chandged with rotating the normals.

Can every body explain me about Beam normals

Thanks in advanced

Hi all!

I read that the "cmplementary starin energy of a structure is not equal to sum of the complementary strain energies of it's components, if there is non-linearity like geometric"

That means for e.g. if I consider a truss stucture subjected to loading so that it undergoes geometric non-linearity, then the sum of the complementary strain energies from members is not equal to complementary strain energy of the structure.

 I request somebody to explain why is it so??

 Thanks and regards,

Hello,

I'm doing a project on Abaqus and I'm trying to use the Kwon and Asaro model but I just can't find anything about it on the benchmark and even on google.

Thus, I hope that somebody could help me?

Thank you in advance!

HI

I have a cantilever Euler beam with a force.

I want to find mechanical impedance for this system

Can you hel me for Specify this impedance?

I attach a jpg file that it show my system.

hello..

 i am working in abaqus for chip formation in machining by using shear failure..please help me how to proceed

Project Description:

Although this is a class in solid mechanics, I chose a project which focuses on fluid dynamics. I did this because I think this project will be very educational with respect to the Finite Element Analysis and mechanics in general.

For my semester project, I will investigate equilibrium geometries of ripples in an elastic sheet. In order to do so, I will need to learn how to study out of plane bending of a thin membrane with ABAQUS. The project can be divided into the following stages:

1. Set up the membrane geometry model in ABAQUS

2. Apply relevant boundary conditions and tractions

3. Set up the job

4. Run the job, and post-process
