    ABAQUS vs LS-DYNA (How LS-DYNA running so faster?)

    Hello to all forum, I'm just starting to testing the capabilities of LS-DYNA and make a comparison with ABAQUS. LS-DYNA have also an implicit solver and I just made a comparison with ABAQUS implicit. Ther result are the same but the calculation time is 8min for and LS-DYNA and 1h and 40min for...

    Force on beam node

    Hello to all forum, I use a beam to simulate a pretension of bolt. In particular I made the nut and bolt head with rigid body and connect the two control node with a beam. After I give a temperature variation on beam and I can simulate the pretension. After I try to evaluete the contact force...

    Creep analysis of plastic material

    Hello to all forum, I'm starting to ask a question a bout creep simulation and analysis of plastic. To simulate a creep behaviur of plastic material as delrin, Nylon...after 800h of creep I use the law epsilon=A*sigmaexpn*t. With this kind of law I don't consider primary zone of creep but only...

    Plot x-y graph sum of nodeset

    Hello to all forum, I'm asking for a question about plotting result. In the step manager I asked the field and history output beahind: *OUTPUT, FIELD *NODE OUTPUT U, RF, *NODE OUTPUT, NSET = Boundary_node_left RF, TF, *ELEMENT OUTPUT S, PE, *NODE PRINT, NSET = Boundary_node_left, FREQUENCY = 1...

    Command to simulate plastic material

    Hello to all forum, There is some one that can said me the command to simulate the plastic material or somthing to similar as Nylon, Delrin... In some tutorial I see that somethimes the Nylon or other material are treated are steel using for example the command: *ELASTIC, TYPE = ISOTROPIC ...

    Contact shell to shell

    Hello, to all forum, I need help about contact shell to shell or solid to shell. When I'm going to define the shell surface I use the command behaind: *SHELL SECTION, ELSET=Elset_name, MATERIAL=steel 1 , and don't use the command OFFSET so I have the reference surface coincident with...

    Polymer fatigue curve

    Hi to all forum, I need to knoe the fatigue curve a bout some polymer as Delrin511P delrin111p and other kind of plastic material. Is there some one can give me these information? Is there some web site specialized in these information? Regards

    Distances between nodes 3 (and other question)

    Thx I try to doing a path on XY plot, but when I try to associate the nodes to a new CSYS, that I have previously created, the csys isn't associate. How can associate it correctly? How can I change the average on the result visualization? There is someone can give me a creep power law for Delrin...

    Derlin 511P creep power low parameter 80¦C

    Hi to all forum, I need the power low parameter (or curve) for creep analysis about Derlin 511P at temperature of 80°C. I ask about it because I must doing an FEM analysis in Abaqus. Is there someone that have this information? Are there some link or site where I can find this information about...

    Distance between nodes_2

    Hi "deveng100", I must do what you said, the distance between a csys created in Abaqus viewer and a node. I think is possible create, in Abaqus viewer, a "temporary node" on CSYS origin but I don't know how do it. What is it mean get RP a CSYS? Thanks a lot. Regards

    Abaqus contact controls 2

    Thanks for help about contact controls. Now I ask you a question about dumping coefficent. You said me to obtain the solution in problem involving contact with difficult convergency could be subdivide the analysis in multiple step decrasing dumping coefficent. You said me the factor in step_1...

    Contact controls parameter

    Hello, thanks a lot to all forum for help about force visualization in Abaqus. Now I have another question about contact controls in Abaqus. During analysis involving contact surface, when the convergence is difficult I use the following parameters: *CONTACT CONTROLS, STABILIZE *CONTACT...

    Force visualization in Abaqus viewer

    Hello, Are there somebody that can said me if there is the possibility to visualize in ABAQUS VIEWER the force insert on the model? After the solution is done I import the .odb file in viewer, I see that there is the possibility to see the boundary condition but I don't know I see the force...
