Damping in Static analysis

Damping in Static analysis

Damping in Static analysis

(OP)
Hi all,
I am trying to see dissipated energy in a two-layer system which a tire is rolled on its surface. In this regard, I am using Raleigh Damping option (Alpha and Beta coefficients). For, this model I apply loads with different amplitudes on the segmented path of tire. So this case, can be regarded as a quasi-static problem. But, I cannot see any dissipated energy due to damping (ELVD and EVDDEN) in the layer. Can anybody help me with this issue?

Regards,

RE: Damping in Static analysis

Are you sure that this kind of damping can be used in a static analysis?

Quote (Keyword Reference Manual)

*Damping
This option is used to provide material damping for mode-based analyses and for direct-integration dynamic analysis in Abaqus/Standard and for explicit dynamic analysis in Abaqus/Explicit.
