Learn How St. Gobain is Saving Time and Money with Abaqus and Isight

Submitted by SIMULIA on

We just can't bottle up this exciting story...

I'm excited to share a recently published article posted on
Design World entitled, Keeping
carbonation bottled up with FEA
. In it, author Chris Hardee had the
opportunity to interview Xavier Brajer of Verallia at Saint-Gobain’s Research
Center. Xavier explained how he and his 15-person Mechanics of Materials Group
in the company’s R&D department use Abaqus and Isight to save time and
money when designing glass bottles.

 

Anisotropic plasticity and hyperelasticity in Abaqus

I am trying to model a polymer that has been processed in such a way that it has oriented (orthotropic) material properties and undergoes very high strains (>100%) before break.

Sliding In Abaqus

Hello everybody.

 I am trying to use abaqus software to model the sliding of a metallic pile inside a metallic sleeve. I have tried doing this with the translator connector, but I always get the message that 2 regions in the model are not connected. Can anybody help me with some hints as to how to use the connector, or if there are any other ways to model the sliding? 

Stress-Strain curve for Concrete Damaged Plasticity in Abaqus

Submitted by parthchoksi on

Hello,

 

I am using Concrete Damaged Plasticity model. My parameters are correct but I am not able to get the desired stress-strain curve for my model.

Can anyone help me with how do I plot the stress strain curve for it (Nominal Stress vs Strain, Reaction force vs displacement or anything else)?

I want to know the exact procedure to do it.

Thanks in advance. 

how to find undex charge property parameters?

hi

i need to define bubble load in ABAQUS.

but there is some paramaters as explosion charge properties should be defined.

for example Charge material constant, K.  or  Ratio of specific heats for gas  or   Density of charge material.

 

 

how can i find these properties for any exlposion charge eg. TNT ?

 

i appreciate your help

Need Help for Abaqus/CAE ( best method for fatigue test for tensile test for a number of cycle)

Submitted by reddy8929 on

Dear friends, i current doing a project work on testing fatigue life of superelastic nitinol. And since i am very new in using abaqus for testing the simulation, i seeking help from people around here to ask for method to test the work. My objective is to set a maximum elongation for 1%-6% of elongation and test for 40,000 cycle if it can work for this amount of cycle..

i Hope anyone can help me as i need to finish this project in order to graduate and i didnt get any single help from regarding this software from my side..

Abaqus - warning message: c3d4h elements will enforce vol .... use *tie

Submitted by MartinV_hfu on

Dear iMechanica-User,

i habe  a general question according to Abaqus. I'm dealing with an biom. model of the breast and i  created the mesh with the toolbox iso2mesh (matlab) / c3d4h elements - each element has it's own youngs modulusand is therefore defined as singel solid section (per element), but all elements use the same node-list. Simulation is done by compression of the breast using two plates.

So here is the problem: i always get the warning message:
