Hello,

This is my first post in imechanica and i hope you can help me, im working in my finall project to obtain my MsC, im working in the simulation of crack growth in freeting fatigue, i found usefull the article post in imechanica by Eugenio Giner node/4338. Im having problems with the preprocessin files, Can you help me with some information about how to create the input files? (i have some basics using ABAQUS CAE, but i dont know how to create the input files like mOXY.prn, TopNox see article)

Reading abaqus field output data using python scripts in an especial coordinate (x,y,z location) and not node/element set

python scripting

abaqus field output data

Hello everyone,

I am using python scripts to extract the field output (displacements) in a nodeset (which was defined in the model) and it does not seem that difficult but I have a question regarding reading output data for a especial coordinate (x,y,z location) and not the node label since when you change the discretization you lose the previous node labels. Does anyone have any idea how to do so?

constraint problem between 2 parts

problem in constraint

How to join the node between two part for example wire planar 3D and plate 3D? I have probem when assemble ABAQUS stated 2 nodes do not coincide.

I have difficulty in constraint between 2 parts.

I have tried inb MPC, TIE CONSTRAINT , MERGE CUT but all not succesfully done.

Difficulty in using connector uniaxial behavior Abaqus

Submitted by Rojit on Tue, 02/12/2013 - 00:14

Dear Abaqus User,

Is there any other possible way to model connector uniaxial behavior (cyclic/hysteretic behavior) without using dynamic explicit analysis? In the manual, it is mentioned that connector uniaxial behavior can be used only with explicit analysis. I am having problem when I chose to run dynamic explicit analysis. The model runs fine with general static step (using cyclic displacement as amplitude). I just need to run quasi static analysis as there is nothing to do with inertia effect.
