How to implement GTN Damge Model in Abaqus

Submitted by Vinod Kumar on

Dear Friends,

 

                      I have to know how to implement a GTN Damage model in Abaqus. Is there any Examples or Tutorials to learn this technique. Can anyone possible to solve my problem.

 

I trying implement this Damage model for the axisymmetric Model. I have uploaded for your reference.

flexural vibration beam+ponctual mass

Hello everyone,

I  modelled  a slender beam (an Euler-Bernoulli beam)  in flexural vibration in Abaqus  in order to do a natrural frequencies extraction. And, then i wanned to analyse the impact of a concentrated mass in its end. but for the first mode, i obtained a result understandable but not for the following modes which i verified analytically. the viewport of this fundamental mode can be found as a file attachement.

Could you please give me an explanation. And Thank you very much for your help

How to define initial stiffness matrix for cohesive elements in ABAQUS

Submitted by pratshar on

I am trying to  model adhesive failure using cohesive elements in Abaqus. I need to define the elastic behaviour of elements using traction separation criteria.

So I wanted to know what is the E/Enn, G1/Ess and G2/Ett values for my adhesive(E=1650 MPa)?

Essential parameter/properties masonry structure modelling (ABAQUS)

Submitted by Raimy Haidar on

hai, im haidar (undergraduate-civil engineering from Malaysia)

Kindly please help me, 

currently im working on my thesis which majorly focused on the dynamic analysis of masonry (Concrete Masonry Unit) multistorey building structure,

presently, im modelling the 3 story building (including ground floor) of masonry building with block size of (200x400mm) including 10mm thickness of mortar joint

(macro-modelling) using the ABAQUS program. However, im facing few issues and confusion regarding on masonry modelling:

 

analysis Composite at Abaqus

Submitted by hamed z on

Hi every one

I try to analysis my Model at Abaqus. I want to use continume shell model to create the composite layer. The model shape is so complex and I can not use Hex meshing. Abaqus just meshing the model as Tetra element. And my problem is abaqus do not accept tetra az composite layer at element type. I try to daturm the model very smal part until may be can define hex element but its not work. There is any way I can use tetra meshing for continume shell.

Hi,

I am doing a project on the effect of forming in fatigue analysis of a component.I have .key file from dyna which I have to run analysis in abaqus. I need to carry the dyna output containing initial stress and nodal thickness into abaqus and carry analysis which I currently am not able to do it. Kindly suggest me how I can do that if u know.

How to plot multi contours in tecplot at a time from two different files.

for example i have two different excel data files A & B with node coordinate and its mises value. I  knew how to plot the individual contour in Tec plot using individual files A & B but now i want to plot both the contour on same page using these individual files (A+B). So, anyone can help me......  

What is the Mechanical properties of Spandex?

Submitted by Zezo7790 on

   Hello everyone I'm new here, Hope you can help me!

I was looking for an elastic material and I found a material called Spandex or Lycra(its trade name) I tried to find its mechanical properties on internet, but could not find specific calculation such as its Yielding stress and its modulus of elastisity(E), the most important thing i need is to find the maximum force or stress that it can stand.

Thank you.

 

Overestimated peak strength for cube compression. Abaqus/Explicit

Submitted by MrsTgr on

Hi,

I have done compression test for concrete cube using Concrete damaged plasticity model. I assigned BC in Reference point which I coupled with a surf of the cube.

I have got stress-strain curve that looks nice, but Peak strength is 2-3 times higher than it should be.

Ia have uploaded pic of force-displacement.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks
