I am simulating a sequentially coupled thermal analysis. I am working with an assembly. I have completed a thermal analysis and then modified the input file for element type, predefined field, boundary conditions(after saving under a different name). I keep getting an error that "abaqus exited...
I am setting up a convective heat transfer interaction in abaqus. My model has a flat Alumina surface at a certain temperature (greater than ambient temp) exposed to atmosphere. I am not sure as to
1. what value to input for the Film Coeffecient (Flat Alumina surface)
2. What expression should...
I am defining contact properties for conducting surfaces. In the boxes where I am required to mention the conductance at zero clearance, what goes in there is it the thermal conductivity of the slave or the master surface. Also what goes in the clearance box for zero conductivity? In my case the...
I am analyzing a part after importing it as a .stp file. I have created seed points along edges successfully.When I try to mesh I get a message saying that areas in magenta cannot be meshed and should be partitioned. I have tried to partition it using options such as 3 point plane and normal to...
I have a two dimensional array in excel such that each cell has a different number of elements separated by commas. For example
Cell A1 has 1.5,201,202,400
Cell B1 has 1.5,202,3000,400,170,190,5.6
Is there an effecient way or command which will bring this data into matlab in the form of...
I have a .xls sheet which consists of strings and numerics. I want to load it into a matrix in order to do further calculations etc. The xlsread function in matlab works only if the strings are placed in the header. In my case however it does not work since the strings are placed in several...
