    CBUSH coincident nodes in hypermesh?

    Hi, I am using Hypermesh. I am defining an ASET nodes for a model reduction, however, the nodes I am using are dependent nodes for an RBE3 element, so they cannot be used as my ASET. I have defined coincident nodes at the same points as the nodes I want to define as my ASET and I want to use...

    Equivalent beam model of a thin cylindrical shell

    Hi, I want to reduce a thin cylidrical shell model to a points along the centreline such that an equivalent beam model is formed with only bending modes. I am working in ABAQUS. I have made a shell model, it has a non-circular cross section, uniform along length: This model is partitioned...

    How to excite a beam through a spring?

    Hi, I have modelled the transient response of a free-free (unconstrained) beam in ABAQUS, however, I now want to model the transient response when the force is placed on a spring. I have attached a rough sketch of the problem. I have applied a two point spring to the beam model using a node...
