Displacement controlled static analysis
Displacement controlled static analysis
(OP)
Hi there,
I am working with dog bone specimen (3D solid) and have elastic and plastic properties given to the model. But, i dont know how to apply displacement controlled (as load)..using 1mm/min in ABAQUS..Anybody can help me?..
or should i use velocity BC or displement/rotation BC's?..please guide me..urgent..(bottom part fixed, only top side will pulled upward 1mm/min..

If inertial or time dependent effects are important you need to use dynamic analysis, and it is easy to aplly time dependent load.
If, on the other hand, time dependent effects are not important, you just apply total (final) displacement and the program will sort it out. You can apply it in the Load -> BC -> Displacement/Rotation, which also allows you to define how is it ramped (but I doubt it that it can be time dependent).
