    wire beam element deletion

    Hi FEA way! thanks for the answer. But i already tried a lot of things but the problem is that i want the wire to disappear in case of excessive COMPRESSIVE load. The closer i found was *tensilefailure but it only condider positive stress. If i put a negative value then, at the start of the...

    wire beam element deletion

    Hi everyone, I have a model made of wire beams. I am running an explicit analysis. I would like to know if there is a way to delete beams during the analysis whose stress exceeds a certain amount. In my case i would like to delete them once they exceed a value of direct compressive stress. Thank...

    Residual stress

    Hi ! Thanks for the reply ! Do i have to download a particular module to do this or is this possible with ABAQUS itself ? Thanks

    Residual stress

    Hi everyone ! I would like to obtain the residual stress after a simulation of stamping and reintroduce it into a the formed part to make further structural analysis. So i have a few questions. The first one would be, is ABAQUS the adapted software to do that ? i would use plastic and...
