Hi,

in my analysis i use the following unit set: N,kg, second ,Pa, kg/m3, i want to include creep (unit 1/day) and step time 40days. Should i recalculate my creep parameter and analysis time from days units into seconds, to fit my primary unit set? Abaqus shows result differences - i don't know why? thanks for any explanation :)

Hi,

it depends on how your creep law is defined. If its defined in days use day step time. So its not necessary to recalculate the parameters
