    Yield displacement In CSIBridge or ETABS

    Hello Everyone, I want to perform a non-linear time history analysis of a SDOF system in CSIBridge. I have assigned a P-M2-M3 plastic hinge at the base of cantilever column and got the maximum nonlinear response. I want to know the yield displacement of that column as well. Can anyone suggest me...

    Product of volume of a mesh element and its average temperature

    Thank you for your reply. Let's say I have 5 elements (E1,E2,E3,E4,E5) in a model and their respective volumes and element temperatures are V1,V2,V3,V4,V5 and T1,T2,T3,T4,T5. This plugin calculates the volume-weighted average temperature as (V1*T1+V2*T2+V3*T3+V4*T4+V5*T5)/(V1+V2+V3+V4+V5). Right?

    Product of volume of a mesh element and its average temperature

    In a thermal transient analysis in Abaqus, I want to calculate the product of the element volume and its corresponding temperature of the whole model in every time step. I have tried using Plugins=>Tools=>Volume Weighted Average Temperature. But I didn't get the result as expected. Is this way...

    Thermal Transient Analysis

    Actually, the equation is thermcond = D*exp(6*temp)/exp(currenttime*temp) May be it was typo-error. Actually, I did a silly mistake. I have missed assigning the dependent variable as 1 due to which the subroutine was not called and I got the same result even when I change the equation. Thank...

    Thermal Transient Analysis

    There is no warning in the output files. I haven't tried on a simple model. The simulation is for the shell section and the element is DS3. Does this make any difference?

    Thermal Transient Analysis

    I want to solve the thermal transient analysis in Abaqus. The conductivity for my problem depends upon the temperature and time. Therefore, I have to use the Abaqus user subroutine. The temperature varies from 0 to 1. I have tried to run the analysis using the following USDFLD subroutine code...
