Hello all,
I have a question about an error that I am receiving with regard to the thickness of shell elements (S4R). here is the error:
***WARNING: In step 1, some facet thicknesses for general contact were reduced from the parent element or specified values due to a large thickness compared...
Hello all!
I am wondering if there is a way to check the location of the environment file that Abaqus is reading. I know where the env file is in the site folder but I do not think that Abaqus is reading this file.
I have been using a modified env file to run user subroutines through ssh...
Hello all,
I am currently running a simulation I use two rigid plates to deform a solder sphere. I have used Abaqus/Explicit to run this simulation and chose a time step small enough to run the simulation in a decent ammount of time.
When I open the odb file a warning pops up that says...
Hello all,
I am looking to impose a pressure load on two sides of a flat circle made of shell elements in Abaqus. This is done to model a manufacturing process for single ply composites. when one side of the composite comes in contact with another surface I would like the pressure BC on that...
Hello all,
I am currently modeling a manufacturing process similar to metal hydro-forming but with composites. The composite (modeled using shell elements) is held between two dies with equal fluid pressure on both faces. A male punch is traversed onto the surface of the composite.
When the...
Hello,
I am currently having an issue with a relatively simple simulation. I am attempting to deform a small solder sphere between two rigid plates in Abaqus explicit. I fixed one plate and applied a velocity boundary condition to the other
I started off having an issue where the simulation...
