Modelling a Spring Shape Memory Alloy
Fri, 2010-07-30 06:05 - akinbala
Hello,
I am a Masters student and I need to model a spring shape memory alloy in ABAQUS. I have found a UMAT file,however the file contains the geometry of a 1X1X1 cube. Does anyone have any idea of how I could copy the geometry of the spring(which i modeled in solidworks and imported to ABAQUS)into the input file of the cube,so that I could run the model in ABAQUS. I have tried this but ABAQUS is giving me errors
Or does anyone have any other idea of how I could model a Sping SMA in ABAQUS?
Thanks
Akin
