Good evening fellow colleagues,
I am working with abaqus python scripts and having a serious trouble with entities selecting. One particular example is selectig all the faces in a certain region where z=0.
I am using the "findat" function, but I only know how to specify a direct coordinate, not...
Good Morning fellow colleagues,
I am trying to run a quasi-static analysis using ABAQUS Explicit. My model consists in a Polymer Cylinder clamped on one end and compressed on the other.
Because of my material properties, I have to impose a controled displacement of 6 mm/min until it reaches 80...
Good Afternoon fellow colleagues
Recently, I've been running a few tests with contacts in abaqus. The last one (a beam-solid contact) failed. It is basically a polymer pipe with four wires of helicoidal tensile armor inside. The contact seems to be ignoring the polymer layer and the wires are...
Good afternoon fellow colleagues,
I am running a few contact tests in ABAQUS. One of them is a beam-beam contact. Doing a little research, I saw that the explicit general contact was the only way to do that. When I tried that, the beams seem to pass through each other. Does anyone happen to...
Good evening fellow colleagues. I am trying to do a stress concentration analisys at the corner of a beam structure (see attachment). I am trying to use MPCs to connect the beam element tip with the shell mesh, but when I check the analysis, I get an error message saying that my elements are...
Good evening fellow colleagues,
I am using a python script to simulate a buckling problem using ABAQUS static/Riks. The problem is that I am getting different results for every time i run the SAME script. Sometimes I get the result I expect and sometimes I get rubbish. I have already looked...
