    Define Set in Abaqus

    In Abaqus it is possible to define sets. As far as I am informed you need this sets for creating boundary conditions and defining loads, pressure. What makes me confused is that you can define a set in "Part" and on he other hand in "Assembly", where you find the defined set from the Part...

    contact problem in Abaqus

    problem: body X contacts body Y (both iron and rubber on the edge), e.g. rubber on rubber . In visualization it can be seen that body Y go through body X. Contact definition is hard and srface-to-surface. How can I fix this problem? thanx for helping

    Problem with curve plotting in Abaqus

    Problem: a contactproblem between two bodies. After plotting cpress the curves oscillates. I think it has sth. to do with the meshing. with normal meshing the curve looks smooth. But with more finer meshing it looses the smothness. How can I fix this problem in Abaqus (CAE) ? many thnax

    Problems with units in Abaqus

    As far as I am informed Abaqus does not care about units. After setting the "approximate size" I have noticed that the measurement of the model has the factor 1:100. For example line A to B has the value 1 (distance "H1"). But I want it to be 100. And not only for this line but for the whole...

    Define boundary conditions in Abaqus

    While modeling a 2-d human hip joint I need boundary conditions, One constraint is that the end of the femur is fixed. How can I define this in Abaqus? Do I need a reference point? Many thanx for helping

    Loads and conditions by modelling a human hip joint

    By modelling a human hip joint (cae ansys/ abaqus) i need to consider loads and (bound conditions). One load is the own human weight , which is clear. But which loads do i have to consider too and where do i have to put them in the geometry? Many thanx for helping

    How to formulate boundary conditions in an input file

    I want to put a force in x-direction with 10N. And there is just a reference point given. How can I write it in the inp-file? What about the measurement? there are dload,cload and dsload.But I do not know which of them to use.

    How to carry over boundary conditions from 2d to 3d model in Abaqus?

    After generating the 3d model from 2dax I want the boundary conditions (BC´s) to be carried over too. How can I write this in the new generated (inp of the 3d-model) input-file?

    How to use Symmetric Model Generation in Abaqus CAE?

    I have created a 2-d axial-symmetrical model and an input file. Now I want to generate a 3-d model.How can I fix my problem? As far as I am informed (in Abaqus CAE) I have to modify the input file. What do I have to write in it and where? thanx for helping
