Hi, everyone:

I am using ABAQUS to do my final dissertation:nonlinear analysis of steel members.

When I simulated the beam with shell element, first I define reference points at both end of the beam and assign 'RIGID BODY/PIN OR TIE' to  nodes at the edge,after that I applied bending moments and boundary conditions to both reference points.  But after I finished the buckling analysis, the result is not reasonable,the eigen value is about two times the the value I expected.

Hi all,

I am trying to model a solder joint in double lap shear. I am using the Modified Anand's Model. But for some reasons the analysis is not completing and does not gives any errors as well. Since I am new to abaqus, I am not able to solve this. Here is my input file:

Hi,



I am attempting to couple a moving multi-body load to a surface using ABAQUS/explicit, i.e. the loading varies depending on the surface displacement at the previous time step.



I realise that VDLOAD cannot access values such as element displacement directly but can access variables using tools such as utility subroutines e.g. UEXTERNALDB.  The only problem is that such utility routines only seem to work for ABAQUS implicit.



Similarly vgetvrm can be used to output stress values but not displacement.
