Abaqus/Explicit memory usage
Abaqus/Explicit memory usage
(OP)
Hi all. I am running forming analysis on abaqus 6.10 on 64 bit platform with 8 gb of RAM. How can I give max memory usage for abaqus/explicit? There is a built in option for abaqus/implicit but for explicit there is no such option.
I want to allocate max amount of RAM for the analysis. Please help me with that.

RE: Abaqus/Explicit memory usage
Respect to Abaqus documentation (3.4.1 Managing memory and disk use in Abaqus) you cannot set memory limit for Abaqus/Explicit calculation phase.
You can only set max. memory limit for preprocessing phase in the same way as for Abaqus/Standard.
Explicit finite element method usually does not need a large amount of memory compare to implicit since there is no stiffness matrix inversion.
