    More experience and future of CAE

    Hi Zsatika, I just found your post, thanks for sharing. I felt identified with your story when a couple of years ago I was working in a small engineering consulting office, where I had been for over five years. This company did offer doing courses and there was some new projects from time to...

    Quasi-static Cyclic Analysis with ABAQUS/Explicit

    I always recommend to add nonlinearities step by step, so you exactly know where the issue lies. Putting all complexities at once is a recipe for nonconvergence. Although with a good review of results and convergence behavior you can have a good feeling where the problem is. If you share more...

    Quasi-static Cyclic Analysis with ABAQUS/Explicit

    1) As FEA way says you need to use combinations of amplitudes and multiple steps. In your case I would suggest to create 5 steps if you have 5 cycles. You can use the same smooth step amplitude if defined with "Step time" (not "Total time"). 2) The uniform mass scaling is ok if your inertia...

    Work Station for FEA

    You can check the certificated hardware page to be sure is compatible. https://www.solidworks.com/support/hardware-certification/ How much RAM depends on which analysis you do, maybe you can share some details fpr better advise. Andrés annelysis GmbH | Engineering Excellence |...

    Abaqus - non increasing load(TF2)

    I agree with with FEA way that a general stativ step is what I expected and what I would use for the kind of analysis you mention. Therefore I would change to a general static step and see if the whole load can be applied with convergence. If some yield instability happens you will see it...
