I will be highly grateful if u will say me how to link subroutines with abaqus....... intel fortran compiler is there.......... how to proceed now????????

Hi all ,

We were doing compression testing of alumina using Instron compression testor. plates used to compress the specimen is made up of Steel. When we applying load in elastic region we are not able to see right deflection because of compliance. Deflection of alumina is not clear as we are getting lots of compliance error. Has anyone faced similar problems. Is changing the steel plate and using any hard material in place of steel is the solution.

 Thanks

These two values are equivalent for bimaterial ?

i have what i supose to be an easy optimization problem to do it with ANSYS. it is a plate (1.75mx1.75m) with 4 holes wich i need to determine the optimum location (x,y) and radius (R)  to minimize the maximum Von Mises straining (SQV). Constraint: 0.04m<Ri<0.2m; Af>0.08*1.75*1.75. Af is the total area of holes and Ri his respective radius. P1=P2=1200N/m. Material: Steel: E=200GPa,v=0.29

Dear All,

I am modelling the cracking in concrete in Abaqus CAE using the Brittle cracking option in Abaqus.

Now i want to see the output results (Contours of cracks) like CRACK, CKE, CKSTAT etc.

But i dont know how to see that output

Can some one help me

Thanks

Kind Regards 

I am working on modelling new type Gough-Stewart robot, I have some problems in modelling. Can anyone help with this?

I have sucessfully called and runed an ANSYS file from Matlab with this command.

! "C:\Program Files\Ansys Inc\v100\ANSYS\bin\intel\ansys100.exe" -b -i D:\ansys_file.txt -o  D:\outputfile.txt

Has any one try to run Abaqus from Matlab, and can you share the command for me ?
