For Geotechnics Abaqus Users!

Submitted by ziyad on

Hello colleagues,

Iam trying to model load test on board pile. I have already a model which is working but not as I need. I think the interaction between pile and soil is not correctly defined. Has someone an experience with this issue.? How I should define the interaction between soil and pile?

Attached .inp file.

Free software for radial Youngs modulus plots of laminates

Submitted by schuffe on

Hi,

i am looking for a free tool to create radial/radar plot for youngs, shear modulus

and poissons ratio (diagramms showing properties as a function of the angle).

so far i found one excel / vb based one but it is very basic.

Any suggestions?

ABAQUS question on multi-core processor.

Submitted by Yongchang Lee on

Hi, all imechanicans,

I use ABAQUS 6.8-1 on REDHAT 64-bit which is recent version. My server has two quad-core processors. Even though I select 8 cpus to run the model I made, only two or three cpus are work, not 8 cpus. Why does it happen? Does anybody know about this?

My model is 2-D and has 1000 eight-node elements.

Thank you

What Platform Would You Prefer for a Software That Helps in Learning FEM---Windows or Java?

Submitted by Ajit R. Jadhav on

Ideally, this post of mine should carry a poll, but I guess as an ordinary user, I cannot insert one.

Currently, I am writing a small software program that is especially designed to help learn FEM. For instance, I will be providing detailed listings for every intermediate step, e.g. all those [D], [B], [k], etc. matrices for each element, as well as the final assembled global system {F} = [K]{d} and its solution separately at each Gauss point. Only linear static problems for the time being; will add transients/eigenvalue problems in near future.

FRANC3D - the next generation

Submitted by bjc21 on

I guess it is about time some one from the Cornell Fracture Group got on this site to try help answer questions related to the CFG software or other fracture mechanics related questions.  We do try to answer questions sent to us via email, but sometimes a forum like this would be best and we do appreciate other users input, feedback, and answers.

Question about stochastic Finite Elements

Submitted by tlaverne on

Hi to the community !

I would like to ask if anyone have some experience with stochastic finite elements in an industrial context ?

Would you know some software (free or commercial) package for stochastic finite elements ?

Why do I have the feeling that sfem methods which look to be very promising aren't used much in practice ? Am I wrong when I say that ?



Thank you very much for any help about that !
