    Tan delta, viscoelasticity, DMA, and specimen size

    Hi All, I'm trying to wrap my head around viscoelastic testing. I would expect greater energy loss (higher tan delta) at lower frequencies/strain rates for creep and strain relaxation reasons, and greater energy loss at higher frequencies as bonds in polymer chains are more pulled and broken...

    Hello All, I hope this is a simp

    Hello All, I hope this is a simple question that may help others as well. Until recently, my models (Abaqus/Explicit) have involved parts fastened together in the assembly but I now need to set one thing on top of another (for example, an object on a table), letting gravity hold them together...

    Pressurization - consistent in models with different material props?

    Hello all, I am modelling a single pressure vessel, looking at different materials and wall thickness. I'd like to pressurise the vessel to a specific pressure in the first step and carry out an analysis in subsequent steps. Using the fluid surface cavity approach, I'm aware of two methods of...

    Automatic csv export of history outputs

    Hello All, I would very much like to have my Abaqus/Explicit jobs export the reqested history outputs as csv or other readable files either during or after the analysis. I don't want to open CAE and export each curve (or set of curves) manually. It looks like this is a bit easier in...

    Normalizing Field Outputs

    Hello All, I've found a lot of helpful information on this forum in the past but now I have come up against a wall. I would like to visualize the nodal displacements of a 2-part assembly as a result of "load-scenario 2" relative to the deformed geometry resulting from "load-scenario 1"...
