    compression test

    Thanks again Ed.R. I had some problem with input data and now it is fine. As you said, in my case i have only applied stress which is equivalent to von-mises. Regards, camefem

    compression test

    Thank you EDR. I did this analysis with abaqus crushable foam model(Zero - Poisson Ratio). From my stress- strain curve, I calculated yield stress and plastic strain(kind of input needed by abaqus) and did the analysis. Vonmises/nominal strain curve approx. matches with yieldstress/nominal...

    compression test

    Hello users, I need to validate material model based on uniaxial compression test. I have stress-strain curve. I have some basic doubts 1. What is the difference between plastic strain and volumetric plastic strain(is it strain due to hydrostatic compression). How to find volumetric plastic...

    Static loading but general contact from explicit solver

    Hello, I want to do static loading test. But, due to complicated contact, analysis is not converging. So, i would like to use general contact algorithm (which is possible only in Dynamic explicit) but loading should be static. How could it be acheived? Is it possible? Hope i am not so stupid...

    Dynamic analysis

    Thanks for your replies. Sorry.I should have been more clear. I am interested only in stresses in certain (BC) areas due to this sudden loading. (not in eigenfreq or modes). I received an abaqus report for the above mentioned analysis. Could you guide me how to evaluate dynamic analysis...

    Dynamic analysis

    Hello, For a dynamic analysis on automobile component, i have the following inputs. Accleration: 24 G and 30 ms(continuously). Mesh: shell (40000 elements) Material: Linear. But geometric nonlinearity presents as per static loading analysis. Do i need mass scaling as mentioned in abaqus...
