Simulation of a cylinder into a cubic and interaction betwwen them by ABAQUS

Submitted by R. Hasanpour on

Hi



I want to simulate a cylinder into a cubic and interaction between them when cubic is subjected to vertical pressure.

I simulated it with ABAQUS, and I run it successfuly. But there was no interaction between cubic and cylinder, and deformations in cubic because of vertical pressure did not affect on cylinder. Do anyone have any solution for this problem?



With regards

The images about model are attached.

Crack initiation and growth using abaqus XFEM

Submitted by vishnukmd7 on

I'm working on fracture mechanics for my undergraduate project. My advisor has asked me to simulate the crack growth in a CT specimen using ABAQUS. When searching for tutorials about XFEM based crack growth, I found these: http://www.matthewpais.com/2d-crack-initiation

Now my problem is that even though I did everything the tutorial asks me to do, when I submit the job, I'm getting a zero element size error. Can Anyone help me with this?

Any kind of help regarding this topic will be high appreciated.
