It looks from the input file like you've applied property definitions to the various part components. Our CAE license is busy, or would check what it all looks like, but judging by the error in the data file, looks like an element or group of elements doesnt have a property definition. Are there...
Temperature can be applied in the input file using
*temperature
1001, 5
1002, 10
....etc
Alternatively,
*INITIAL CONDITIONS, TYPE=TEMPERATURE
1001, 5
1002, 10
....etc
This applies a temperature of 5 to node number 1001 and 10 to 1002, thus your temperature dependent properties should adjust...
fanjm,
I was trying to model this very thing a few months ago, and similarly had a lot of difficulties capturing the neccessary effects of young hardening concrete in Abaqus.
As suggested, field dependency terms can be used to change the stiffness. However, I was not sure about whether abaqus...
What are you running the analysis in? My understanding is that this sort of analysis is best suited to Abaqus/Explicit, particularly if you're trying to model a fast dynamic simluation.
Traditional lagrangian elements undergoing extreme deformation may struggle to solve due to the shape of the...
Just to add to that, the following input should provide you with the first 16 modes, if you are using an input file analysis method. As Dominvs says, difficult to specify the mesh withoutn knwoing more, but it should be suitable for the geometry. The documentation goes through meshing and...
I would have thought you need to maintain the boundary conditions and loading from the end of the initial step such that the block will be in equilibrium at the beginning of the dynamic step. (I assume the blocks are in equilibrium at the end of the standard analysis if it has solved...
You can do this.
Each time you open viewer, an rpy file is created showing exactly what you have done.
So if you go into viewer and create the path once and go to report/xy data and write to a file, this process is stored. Then go into the rpy file and copy out the relevant text; you can then...
I would agree, I don't believe you can do this in Abaqus. However, you can import the input file into whatever versions of CAE you like. It will extract the nodal coordinates, surface definitions, loads, boundary conditions etc and can then be edited as normal in CAE.
You may lose some of the...
I am trying to model the curing process of a mass concrete structure. We have a 6m diameter, 60m high steel cylinder which is to be filled with a high strength concrete mix (approx 40GPa 28 day stiffness).
There are a number of processes occuring during the curing phase which I'm trying to...
