Hello,



I'm trying to figure out how the Interaction Module (surface-to-surface contact) in ABAQUS works. I want to apply a compression force on a 2D axisymmetric

deformable body via an analytical rigid surface(2D and axisymmetric also) - basic stuff. When I launch my simulations,

I get the good strains and stresses at the surface of the body which is in contact with the analytical rigid. Moreover, the reaction

forces and displacement of the analytical surface are adequate.

Dear Friends,

The reputed Springer publication from The Netherlands has given me the responsibility to edit a book titled “Nanomechanical Analysis of High-Performance Materials”.

Hi all,

I want to model a soil body which its shear modulus changes with the deviatoric strain.I know it can be introduced in ABAQUS by field variables (defining a field variable). But the question is that how can I tell ABAQUS that the defined variable is the "deviatoric strain" ? 

Thank you beforehand.

Sir/Madam,

Could you send me thermal fatigue tutorials in Abaqus ?please any one have thermal fatigue tutorials,please help me.Please send me any languague of tutorials.If it is tutorials in english ,it had better for me.

Thank you.

Hi,

I am trying to analysis a model in ABAQUS with a plate bolted to the Bracket top surface at 4 ends. I have to define contact between them (and also bolted at 4 ends) to get the Modal frequency. But When I searched for it, I got the answer that contact doesn't work with Modal analysis as contact is a nonliner problem and Modal Analysis only solves linear problem.
