ABAQUS

Missed the SIMULIA XFEM eSeminar?

Submitted by SIMULIA on

No worries! Check out the recording and learn how Abaqus FEA provides proven robust capabilities for modeling bulk fracture and crack propagation in many materials. One of the newest techniques available in Abaqus is the eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM) whose advantages over alternative approaches include mesh independent crack definition, improved convergence rates for stationary cracks, simplified mesh refinement studies and more!

Extract natural frequencies in abaqus

Submitted by Davidgc on

Hi all,

 I am new in the blog, so I would like to appologies if this post is already published.

 I am doing a research in vibracion-based health monitoring based in CFRP beams. As a part of my research, I am modeling a composite beam in abaqus and apply transient analysis on it. Before I would like to validate my model with a very simple a easy model for this reason I have elaborated this procedure:

How to implement "steady state dynamic analysis" in abaqus

Hi all,

Here is what I'm interested to model in Abaqus:

I have a shell model, clampled on the booundaries. I want to excite it in a frequency range of 10 to 100 Hz with 10Hz intervals and I want to report the complex displacement of a particular node set at each frequency.

I read in Abaqus documentation of "Direct-solution steady-state dynamic analysis" that:

How to get nodes from a list of nodelabel in abaqus

Submitted by Aswathi Sudhir on

 Hi everyone,

I am a working on a cube in abaqus. I had to remove some nodes from the face node sets. To be specific edge nodes. I have defined a function in such a way that after removing them what I have is a list of node labels. I am scripting in python. Can anyone help me in extracting nodes back from nodelabels? 

Or is there any better way to remove some nodes from nodelist and get the modified nodelist ? 

Thanks 

Curvature effect on nitinol aortic stent

Submitted by ankur2626 on

high i am a student doing a project on curvature effect on thoracic stent. I want to curve the nitinol stent in abaqus. I am using RSURFU and doing static analysis. But am not able to curve it. Also when using implicit dynamic analysis with quasi static apllication my KE is high and comparable to IE. So can any body help me. Crimping and expansion is not a problem.
