I gave a seminar at Xian Jiaotong University on 27 October 2009.  I recently found the video of the seminar online.  The seminar was in Chinese, but the slides were in English.

Dear collages,

 

I'm trying to develop a non-linear analysis. I want to model a foundation as a shell, and I want to consider the stiffness of the soil (but I have to define also that the stiffness in traction is = 0, and in compression is equal to the Winkler module). I want to develop this model in ABAQUS software. Could anyone help to me?

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Juan José

Dears,  I am quite new in the area of Abaqus models and biomechanics. My background is related with textiles. However I am a post doc in Belgium at the moment and my new task is to model a fingertip skin section under the influence of contact with different objects.

Help for contact problem in tires

Submitted by pradeep632 on
research

HI

     I am trying to modeled a 3D tire assembly for a tire footprint. I assembled the tire, rim and the rigid-body as the road. I modeled the rim as an analytical rigid body. I am using STATIC GENERAL as the stpe with automatic stabilization. I have defined a following for the contact formulation in ABAQUS Standard:

1) Between the tire and road (analytical rigid-body):Surface to surface contact - Master surface: analytical rigid-body and Slave surface : the tire surface in contact with the rigid-body. The ineraction properties are:
