ABAQUS/CAE

Abaqus/Explicit memory usage

Submitted by Bunnu mobile on



Hi all. I am running forming analysis on abaqus 6.10 on 64 bit platform with 8 gb of RAM. How can I give max memory usage for abaqus/explicit? There is a built in option for abaqus/implicit but for explicit there is no such option.



I want to allocate max amount of RAM for the analysis. Please help me with that.

analysis of RC cooling tower

Submitted by reza1001 on

Hi.

The topic of my thesis is about analysis of RC cooling tower under earthquake loading. The way of this analysis is FEM & for this analysis, I'm doing with "Abaqus" software.

 

I ask that this software can analysis this structures?

 and

 for modelling of the rebars of X-legs in this structure, what can I do?

 

Thanks.

Drawing 3D geometry in Abaqus CAE/Command

Dear All,

I am going to draw a 3-D model to be run in Abaqus. I would like to know how I can do that.

I find it is a little bit cumplicated to design the 3-D structure with certain curvatures in CAE. 

Could anyone tell any assisting softwares or approaches of designing the 3-D geometry in a simpler way for finite element analysis?

 

Many thanks,

I am trying to analyse a beam subject to elevated temperature using smeared cracking model for concrete. Its sequentially coupled thermal stress analysis. I am a newbie as far as ABAQUS is concerned. Can someone please help me out with the smeared cracking model. I am not able to figure the tension stiffening properties that I need to enter. Please help.

Modeling fatigue crack growth in abaqus using xfem

Submitted by m.kesh on

Hi

Dear all,

I am new to abaqus and I have to model a fatigue crack growth using xfem.

I have searched for a tutorial for that and I could not find anything useful. 

Does anybody know where can I find the tutorial or smth helpful?

tnx in advance,

 

J integral variation through thickness in tubes with through-wall circumferential crack, calculated with Abaqus/CAE

Submitted by Marcos Bergant on

Dear friends: I am a PhD candidate studying fracture problems in tubes. I am doing J integral calculations in Abaqus, for tubes with through-wall circumferential cracks subjected to tensile and bending loads. I am using quadratic 20 nodes isoparametric elements with reduced integration (C3D20R), ranging from two to five elements through the wall thickness mesh.

Hi,

I am learning Abaqus to model sandwich composite struture. If anyone has done that or has any tutorial for that, then please share.

Also I want to refer mathematical formulation of sandwich plates for dynamic stability analysis, please share.

 

Thanks,

Vinay
