    Solver Problem. Zero pivot when processing D.O.F 11 of 49 nodes

    I dont have any thermal loads (I am just working with the electrical parameters). My only two boundary conditions are electric potientials of 5e-6 and -5e-6 on the top and bottom surfaces. It does work with 5e-6 and -5e-6 but when I change it to 5e-3 and -5e-3 (which is my real values) and get...

    Solver Problem. Zero pivot when processing D.O.F 11 of 49 nodes

    Hello, I have a question regards a thermal-electric analysis. I am trying to model how the electric potential will behave in a conductive material. I apply electrical potential at the corners of a material then I had to use a subroutine to use the electrical conductivity interaction GAPELECTR...

    Electro-mechanical Coupling

    I was wondering if I can have an electro-mechanical coupling between a metallic structure and a piezo-electric one. I want to measure the potential between the metallic structure that will be conducted through the piezo-electric plate when pressure is applied. Is this possible in Abaqus....and how??

    Electrical properties dissipating from one material to other

    I want to have to materials in contact, a piezoelectric one and a simple Stainless steel. I would like to see the charge distribution between the piezo plate and the SS material. How do I make this possible? What meshes should i use and interaction properties? Thank you.

    PLEASE HELP !!!Node displacement condition or Force applied uniformily

    Taht will be nice...problem is how do I get trained (easy to say difficult to do). Is there any tutorial available, I thought this forum was for helping people.

    PLEASE HELP !!!Node displacement condition or Force applied uniformily

    How do I do that? I am pretty new at abaqus, sorry.

    PLEASE HELP !!!Node displacement condition or Force applied uniformily

    Hello, I am trying to apply an uniformly force into a surface (bowtie structure), however the nodes deform as if the force will deform in the middle (where no support is given by bowtie structure). Well, it make sense if I apply a pressure (which is the only parameter I find to apply as a force...
