    NFORC for defining total forces across section

    Hi all, My first question is in regards to NFORC. My basic understanding is that NFORC calculates the nodal forces within an element that can be attributed to the stresses within that element. If I have a surface that defines a section through a 3D body, can I sum these NFORC for all elements...

    Using Excel for NREAD

    Hi all, I was wondering if anybody knows how to use excel to generate a file that can be used as avnode file for NREAD in Ansys V11. All formats I have tried (.csv etc) either fail or do not read the data correctly. bfillery

    Determining effective force and moment through solid section

    Hi all, I was wondering if anybody had any idea how to determine the effective axial force and bending moment that results from a solid cross sections stress distribtution. That is, say I have a cross section through either a p.strain p.stress or 3D simulation, and I would like to resolve the...

    J Integral Independence 3D Mesh

    Hi All, Was wondering if anybody who is experienced with the J Integral (Fracture mechanics) option can answer the following. When performing a J-Integral analysis in a 3D cylinder, I find the J Integral values at the intersection of the crack line with a free body surface is path dependent...

    How to determine line directions in CAE

    Hi All Just wondering if anybody knows how to either view or determine line directions in Abaqus CAE. I need to check the direction of a crack face tangent when basing the crack line on a line within the assembly. Thanks bfillery

    ABAQUS 6-6 and sciPy import

    Dear All I was wondering if anybody knows how to, or has successfully imported sciPy during a python scripted ABAQUS 6-6 analysis. The release notes for ABAQUS 6-6 suggests that Python 2.3.3 is now the current distribution, and furthermore, that external packages such as sciPy may now be...

    Alternative to SLIDER MPC* for enforcing planar sections

    Hi all I was wondering if somebody could suggest an alternative way of enforcing a planar section requirement as described by the SLIDER MPC* (i.e. enforces a line to remain plane but allows the line to change length) by using either coupling or constraint equations in ABAQUS CAE so that Python...
