Obtaining Contact Results in ABAQUS Subroutine

Submitted by rmbwang on Fri, 10/10/2014 - 10:49

I just found a utility routine in ABAQUS (GETVRMAVGATNODE) functioned to obtain contact information (e.g. contact pressure) detailed as follows:

strain energy

Hello guys
I want to increase my accuracy in calculating strain energy for whol model in a simple composite under static load.
please suggest some methods for increasing my accuracy to achieve a dramatically result.
If someone know about this issue please leave your email for sending my file .
Unlucky my file has a giant size and I cant upload it in this part.
please help me

Questions about stresses distribution in pin-loaded orthotropic plates

Submitted by Jinxing.Huo on Thu, 10/09/2014 - 09:26

research

Dear all,

I am now reading a paper about the stress distribution in pin-loaded orthotropic plates.

The paper 'Contact stresses in pin-loaded orthotropic plates' is written by Prof. M.W. Hyer.

In this paper, the stresses on the boundary of the hole in the plate are given by a complex Fourier series with unknown coefficietns Ak. The unknown coefficients Ak's are determined by a system of algebraic equations: [C]*{A}={B}. A collocation procedure is needed to construct the square matrix [C].

Transversely Isotropic

Viscoelastic

I am looking for a viscoelastic model for transversely isotropic materials with applications in geomechanics. I also look for the material properties and viscoelastic coefficients for one or two TIV material. Can any one help me?

Hi, I'm trying to solve a problem with heat transfer and fluid. When I co-execute heat transfer model and CFD model, the following error is encountered "An unrecoverable error has been encountered with the co-simulation engine".

Can anyone help me solving this error?

Gratefull for your attention.

Cracks found at reactor at Hunterston B nuclear power station

Perhaps some of those on this site have seen the news article on the BBC website yesterday about cracks appearing in the reactor at the Hunterston B nuclear power station. As the article states, cracking in the graphite bricks is predicted and the regulators are happy that the reactor is safe to operate.

Problem relating to Contact Pressure in ABAQUS Subroutine

Submitted by rmbwang on Mon, 10/06/2014 - 10:39

research

I have already obtained the contact pressure (CPRESS) in the ABAQUS model.

NOW, I want to introduce a subroutine in ABAQUS which enables setting the contact pressure as input information, since contact pressue is the intial condition for another model which will incorporate with the existing model. I wonder if anyone can provide some suggestions on which subroutine can read the CPRESS (CSTRESS) as input information.

Many thanks!
