In the finite element analysis of a transient problem, the usual procedure is to discretize the space (domain) using finite elements, while in the time direction, a time-stepping scheme based on finite differences is used. Is it possible to use a finite element type discretization in time also? Is there any work done in this manner?
Can anyone familiar with Abaqus animations? I have a multistep simulation and in each step I want to show different elements and then get the movie of this. For example lets say I have 1:100 elements: at first step I just want to see 1:50 elements at second step 1:51 elements third 1:52 and continuing like that. How can I get this animation at Abaqus. Is there a commond to do is at the input file? Or how is possible at ODB?
Best Thanks for your help

Since early 60’s the world of structural engineering has been revolutionised. The advance development in science and technology resolved those issues raised by pioneer engineers but at the same time introduced complications into the world of engineering never known before. The question is where we see structural engineering within the next decade. How do we think it will evolve?
Hello everyone.
Does anyone know how to define a circle (a face) in the input file. I have been able to define the basic shape of a semi-circle, but i am having difficulty with generating the nodes and elements.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank You!
Hi
this is Probal from university of western ontario (UWO). I am working on three roller flow forming process and i have to model the deformation specially in the splined area. could you please give me any idea or give any link so that i can have an idea what to do.
thank you probal
Hello Everyone,
I have run a simple beam simulation of a cantilever pipe. I calcualted it with 8-Node brick elements, beam elements and hand calculation. At the up and low edge of the beam connection to the wall, I got maximum stress values as expected. While the beam and hand calculation results are similar (40 MPa), brick element calculation is higher. (50Mpa). Interestingly the finer the mesh of brick elements the higher the stress values. I couldnt figure out the reason of it. Can any one say a comment?
Thanks in advance
