how can i model a Composite of 3 layup? ABAQUS

Submitted by booklee on

hi``eveybody.

I am new to ABAQUS,have a model to simulation.

it has 3 plies that are combined with glue.

the core ist polymer and the upper,lower ply is the same steel.

the 3 plies have eigenvalue of thichness

should i build 3 parts,or only 1 part in the parts model?



when i cannot ignore the glue,thus what should i do?

should i use Create Composite layup in the Property model or create a solid Composite

 

 thanks.

How can I find the exess pore water pressure in my dynamic soil model

Submitted by alishafi on

Dear friends

I've prepared a dynamic model of saturated loose sandy soil with abaqus software. Unfortunately, after  running the model, the pore water pressure is didn't raise up. I don't know if any kind of subroutines I must use or anything else. I'm in the final step of  my thesis analysisand I really need your helps.

Sincerely yours

Hi, I have difficulties in dealing with contacts in Adams/View: 

ERROR:    Only solids are supported in 3d contacts, some of the geometries used in contact are not valid solids.

I create the parts by writing a command file. Would anyone konw what causes this error? Thanks! 

Surface Based Fluid Cavities, and inflators

Submitted by Nathan Hayes on

I've been tasked with creating a 3D model of a demo inflatable
structure here in our lab. The goal is to inflate it in ABAQUS, and I
have been making some progress in using the *FLUID CAVITY keyword.
However I'm noticing odd things in my results. I have the pressure of
the gas increase to 4psi in a tabular form, however as I watch the
frame by frame, the stress concentrations on the structure vary oddly,
and the model deforms oddly. Almost as if it was a ball being pressed
back and forth against the floor, expand contract, that kind of deal.
