Has anybody work with fluid/structure interaction(FSI)?
My problem is about an object sinking into the water. I want to model the full sinking of the object into the water. I have created the object (metal) in 3D (solid deformable) with explicit step. the water was created as an Eulerian part...
Hi, I have a basic question on plotting the disp-real time.
My problem is on sinking an object into the water. I have run the problem in Explicit and it was working fine. Now I want to get the result of sinking of the object versus the time. if i go for disp-time it shows the disp against step...
Does anyone know how to introduce initial periodic defects to trigger folds?
Spheres under compression normally respond in folded dents. I want to simulate 4- and 5-fold formations under a compressive impact in a sphere with 1 mm thickness.
Hi Guys,
I want to model a plate with thickness variation. the nominal thickness is 2 mm but after measurement found the thickness is vary from 1.85 to 2.15 mm. My question is how I can model the plate? if I make the plate as a part with nominal thickness how I can apply the thickness variation?
Guys, I've got two parts and want to connect them together using a spring element. I've done following:
1- Create two RP for the two parts
2- Couple each RP to its relevant part
3- Connecting two RP using an spring element
when I run the model using explicit solver I get following error...
Hello guys, I have two complex solid body which have a relative rotational motion, I want to track the distance between any two points of bodies and measure the angle of rotation, any idea?
I need to use user subroutine but it is not working. I have Abaqus 6.8 and visual C++ 2005 express edition and Fortran power station 4.0 installed on my machine. I don’t know how I can set the environment to link those together. Does anyone have any suggestion for this?
Hi, I am modelling a cyclic tensile loading of a non metallic wire (3D model with elastic material). I need the wire cyclically be loaded in tension between 50 N to 150 N for 100 cycles at 1HZ.
Does anyone have a suggestion for it?
Guys
I want to tie two bodies after a contact? the bodies should move together after the contact.
I need to define the "tie" in the second step. any idea?
Hi
I have created a simple 3d body in abaqus/explicit v6.7 and try to rotate it using boundary condition (displacement/rotation). I have defined UR1 and want to turn the body over the X direction. After running the program there is no error but I cannot see any change on the body.
Does anyone...
