    What is the difference between field output and history output?

    Thanks xerf. I am going to try to do what you say to me Bye

    What is the difference between field output and history output?

    Xerf, thank you very much by your answer. I take advantage of to ask if you would know like defining exactly a point of mass in a node of a rigid solid Thank in advance

    Units of Kinematic Energy

    thanks very much PamCrash and Drej I do not know very clearly that CFORCE is a force per area and that I must define previously this area. In my problem, I have two solids (a rectangular plate and a impactor) that makes contact after dropping to the impactor from certain height. I have defined...

    Units of Kinematic Energy

    Hello all, Somebody knows which are the units of the kinetic energy if use milimeters (mm) like length? ¿mJ or J??? another question: CFORCE is a force by length unit? -->(N/mm)?? Please, help me.

    Gravity with rigid body

    Hello Charlesbreen, > When I define the gravity like a force concentrated in the reference node, it continues happening the same, independently if I apply a force of 58Newton or if it is of 200Newton etc.. the plate becomes deformed the same amount thing that I know that it is not possible then...

    Gravity with rigid body

    Hello Charley, if I apply the gravity like a concentrated force, Can at the same time define the initial speed of the impactor and this force? Regards, Irene

    Gravity with rigid body

    Hello gelu, I am working with Abaqus/explicit. I define the speed of the impactor in the reference node and restrict in this node all the displacements (except the vertical) and rotary. My problem is that I do not know what option I must use when I am in Step --> Manager --> Edit --> Mass...

    Help: defining mass of discrete rigid body

    No I don´t use mass scaling? What implications have their use? Thanks in advance

    Help: defining mass of discrete rigid body

    Hello all, I have a problem when I am trying to define de mass of a discrete rigid body. I know that is necesary to define a reference node for each rigid body. after that, What I must make to end up defining the mass of the rigid solid. Please, somebody can help me, I need it to be able...

    Gravity with rigid body

    Hello all, My model consists of three parts: impactor, plate and supports. On the supports the plate is located and the impactor is dropped at great speed. The object of the study is to determine the stress, energy released in the impact... with this objective, I have thought that it could...
