Hello Everyone I am a fresher in an automotive design company and an experienced person at the workplace told me that in the industry for sheet metal design they use Part Design Module as it is easier than GSMD for complex structures. My question is "is it ok to switch between modules as I...

dlkk, forgive me if im wrong, but this is what i think it might be Abaqus doesnt use any units. Whatever value your modeled in, will the final result. EG: if i model in meters, apply force in newtons, then my stress will be N/m^2. Hope it helped!

Hey Ice, If I include a connector element like nonlinear spring, will ALLSE include the SE of the spring also? If it does, how can I extract SE of model and SE of spring seperately? Thanks in adnvace

Hey Ice, You rule :D thanks for the quick answer. It was just what i wanted. thank you thank you

Ive a 2D model and I wish to extract the sum of strain energy by adding strain energy of each element. I found that the rpt file, when generated in the CAE contains this sum.

Hey everyone, I have generated 100s of .odb files using Python by varying certain parameters. Now how do I generate rpt file for each of them? I need to obtain this file because it contains the total strain energy of my model. Extracting strain energy of each element is not possible because...

No I am unable to understand how to use the connector element. What I'm looking for is that for an output displacement of 5mm I don't want any resistance. But after that I want to have some resistance of 5N/mm stiffness. So if I input as : *Connector Behavior, name=ConnSect-1 *Connector...

Thanks for the reply IceBreakerSours, yes I've read the manual but I couldn't understand completely. So in the first OBD file that I attached, have I defined in such a way that till a force of 10N no resistance is applied, and after that some resistance is being applied? Is the...

Suppose I define the parameter like this:- *Connector Behavior, name=ConnSect-1 *Connector Elasticity, nonlinear, component=1 -1000., 2 0., 0 50., 8.5 What would this imply?

Hello IceBreakerSours Thanks for your reply. I am glad that I am somewhat close to the solution I desire. But how did you realize that I have zero resistance for 10mm displacement? I actually wanted to define zero displacement of the spring while the output port moves 2mm freely and then have a...

Hello everyone, I just joined this group, a newbie in design and abaqus user. I have a question regarding nonlinear spring in abaqus. I have heard in this forum and others that we must use axial connector section and define force displacement parameters. To which do these refer to? the spring...
