    Ball bearing simulation

    Hi, If you don't need results on the bearing itself, you don´t need need to introduce the ball bearing component. You can model it using conectors and couplings. Check the manuals for those elements. Matias

    Abaqus script for creating a video

    I've obtained a solution from another Abaqus group. I paste it here in case someone else find it useful: --------------------------------------------- This should be relativley straight forward. Just click the appropriate buttons to do what you want, then look in the *.rpy file. It should have...

    Abaqus script for creating a video

    I need to automatize a video creation process using a python script. I have a odb and need to create a script capable of: - Define common plot options and Contour plot options - Define active frames - Animate time history - Save image animation I have little experience with abaqus scripting...

    ABAQUS torsion question

    I think the results are OK end the apparent grow in diameter is due to the scale factor of the deformed shape and/or the perspective. You should measure the displacement at one point of the outer diameter of the unconstrained face and check if the result is consistent. Hope it helps.

    Steady state dynamic

    Hi, In a Steady-state step, the magnitude of the force is constant for all frequencies. I think you have to divide the displacement value by the force applied (constant). If you use a force of magnitude=1, the diagram you get is displacement/force on the Y-axis and frequency on the X-axis hope...

    How can I apply a triangular load over an elastic body?

    Can't you use a hydrostatic load only? With hydrostatic load you can model any kind of triangular load... matias

    How to model magnetic pull?

    Thanks rstupplebeen and CharlieM80 for your answers. What I'm trying to model is a Kaplan turbine shaft. It's a vertical shaft supported by two bearings and subjected to a magnetic body force on the top end (generator). This body force is attractive, depending on the distance between rotor and...

    How to model magnetic pull?

    Hi All, I'm trying to model a magnetic interaction between a shaft an the stator. The magnetic interaction behaves like a spring with negative stiffness: When the shaft approaches the stator, the attraction force increments. I've tried using a connector element with negative stiffness, but...
