Hi,
I have read through the chapter in the manual about declaring a plastic material property, but I cannot seem to find how to define a non-linear elastic non-linear plastic material, for which I have XY data points (stress-strain) and I know the yield point.
Using the plastic material...
Hi,
How does Abaqus interpolate material properties between at the interface between two cells of different properties?
I have read through much of the analysis manual on material but I cannot seem to find anything on how the interface between two different materials is treated.
I have...
Hi,
How do i apply a force/displacement to a point on a deformable body?
For example, my model (in 2D) is a deformable circle on a rigid ground, and I want to roll the circle along the ground.
Thanks in advance for anyone's help,
Philip
Hi,
What exactly is the reference point on a rigid body for?
I am trying to do a contact model of a deformable solid with a rigid body sheet, but it won't let me run an analysis unless I define a reference point for the rigid body?
In addition, it requires the rigid body sheet to have a mesh...
Hi,
I have been trying to model a hemi-cylinder in contact with a brick in 2D, as in the hertz solution for contact stresses.
I fix the bottom of the brick from moving and i apply a pressure to the top of the hemi-cylinder.
But I keep getting two peak tensile stresses at the edge of the...
Hi,
I am quite new to abaqus, and am more familiar with finite volume methods.
I am trying to create a 2D contact problem in abaqus (see attached pic).
I am putting a uniform pressure on the top surface of the hemicircle and am constraining the bottom of the brick.
I have ran a few different...
Hi,
I have quite a fine mesh a one point in my model, and i cannot see the stress distribution as the mesh is covering and it is just a black area. How do I turn off the mesh while viewing results?
I have trawled for hours through all the options and cannot find one to turn it off or make it...
