Hello Mustaine3,
My problem is not with *Distribution or its Table, my concern is that in one of the examples that is written in the documentation as shown below, dist1 is assigned to *Elastic. How is it possible to assign dist1 in CAE in the property section, since when you make an elastic...
Hello IceBreakerSours,
I have read about distribution and discrete fields and how to make it in documentation but I don't know how to use it in material section. for example if I want to use various linear elastic material properties for let say a part made of 8 elements. How can I assign...
Hello IceBreakerSours,
Thank you for your prompt reply. The *Distribution feature isn't for the 2D (shell) elements? I have hexahedral continuum elements.

Dear All,
I want to assign the material properties for each element using Abaqus. I am simulating bone and I want to assign the material properties of the bone to each voxel mesh using abaqus. The number of the elements I have is really high so I cannot manually select them. On the other hand...
I am trying to mesh a geometry using voxel mesh in mimics software but when I importing it into the abaqus, it is giving me several number of unconnected regions/elements. How can I delete the unconnected elements? my geometry is bone which is made of porosity and is giving the unconnected...
IceBreakerSours I am simulating disc degeneration in my model. The vertebrae are connected using ligaments (truss elements). I want to change the length of the disc and do range of motion tests. So I need the ligaments to lax. I want to change the behavior of the ligaments to become active when...
Dear Mustaine3, In that way I would most probably get solver problem errors. since I have many of these truss elements in my model. But I would give it a try.

Dear IceBreakerSours maybe I asked my question in a wrong way. I want to figure out the stress caused by bending in a solid 3 dimensional material. I know that I can get the bending in beam. But I wanted to get the stress caused by bending only on my part not the total stress which is caused by...
Dear Icebreakersours, Actually yes I want to assign hyper elastic material properties to the truss elements. I want to simulate two different blocks connected by a truss elements (such as tether or rope that gets lax). after making the blocks close to each other, the trusses are also getting...
I want to simulate a case in abaqus that my truss element does not get activate in the very beginning. As a clear-cut example, assume its first length is 2 mm. I want it to become active when it gets to let say 6mm. So I want to define a condition for it, that it gets to a certain point of...
Thank you so much for your quick replies. Dear Mustaine3 it says it is optional but if the automatic incrementation is selected it should be there.
Dear IceBreakerSours I am trying to use it for expanding the elements by comparing the stresses in the model to an initial stress during the step...
I am using a USDFLD subroutine for my FE analysis. I wanted to know if I can use USDFLD subroutine with the automatic time incrementation? I have read in the documentation that PNEWDT is allowing the subroutine to work with automatic incrementation but I wanted to be sure if I need to define any...

Hello
I want to obtain the shear force with respect to a local coordinate system in a set of elements in Abaqus? What output should I ask for?
I used NFORC output but in the ODB when I change the Coordinate system the NFORC1, NFORC2 and ... values are not changing.
Please help me to get the...
Dear Bartosz,
Thats right at the first step we have motion of both nodes with the translator connnector.
Answering your second question, I should say right now I figured out that I can couple a third point to the box one and connect that point via another connector to the existing connector...
Dear Bartosz,
Simply if it was possible to define two different connectors using different coordinate systems and activated at the different steps, this was possible. But unfortunately, abaqus is not letting me define two different connectors between same nodes, also as you stated too, I do not...
