    Which are the differences in contact solution Abaqus 6.10 vs 6.14?

    Hello all, Some time ago I solved a transient thermo-mechanical problem using Abaqus 6.10, and I was quite satisfied with the observed results (frictional dissipation energy and power loss due to friction). Now, I am solving the very same problem with Abaqus 6.14 (using the very same *.inp...

    Thin shell for modelling a can

    Hello all, I need to perform a finite element analsysis to determine the deformation of a can under a 2bar internal pressure. The material of the can is TH520 (tin plate, i've got the strain-stress curves), and the thickness of the plate is 0.18mm - 0.19mm. I have performed a non-linear...

    Indentation hardness on a FEM model

    Hi all do you know if it is possible to include indentation hardness as a material propertie in Abaqus? Thanx in advance Víctor ^^

    Help needed in Abaqus FEA

    Hi, I'm doing a static analysis of a beam with a point load. I think it is a very simple problem, but Abaqus can't solve it. After five incrementes and a time incremente reduced to 3.906E-03, the *.msg file says: ***NOTE: THE SOLUTION APPEARS TO BE DIVERGING. CONVERGENCE IS JUDGED...

    Modeling interaction between bearings and axle

    Hi all. I'm modelling the interaction between the gear drive axle and the bearings in its extremes. I've modeled the axle with linear beam elements, and i was thinking to put in its final nodes boundary conditions that simulate the bearing stiffness. I'm thinkin of use spring elements, or...

    Question about contact problem

    Hi I need to know wich element type is better to solve contact problems with FEA. I think the better choice are linear elements, but I need any bibliographical reference to contrast this thought. Thanks in advice

    Question about contact results..

    Hi! I need to know the contact area between two deformable solids. How can I do that in Patran/Marc? Thanks in advance

    Question about MPCs

    Hi!I'm a newbie in FEA world, using Marc preference for Patran. I've got two questions about FEA: The first one is, how can I specificate a moment (rotational force) in Patran? I've tried with the LBC 'Force', but no action seems to ocurre when the analysis is launched. The second question is...
