I find the concept of job titles quite different between India, where I come from and Germany, where I work. In India, people get frustrated if they dont get a different and seemingly 'more significant' desgination, as their term in Company grows or when they switch jobs. Ofcourse the change in...

:( It seems like a OS related problem rather than a memory related one. The Model runs in my linux machine seamlesly in for all memory settings. When I set the memory less than 1G, it informs that it requires more memory and gracefully exits. Seems to me like a bug. You can inform Abaqus...

hmm... try setting in the memory as 90% of physical memory inJob Editor. But now im not convinced that this is a memory problem, as you have 4GB. Probably this is a OS related problem. I ran it on a linux box. I havent tested it on windows machine. Tomorow i will try and will let u know. Can...

Hi Kailar Thanks for the file. I just checked the CAE file. Nothing is really wrong with the Model. I ran the model with almost 7G of memory and it ran without hiccups ( I manually stopped the calculation after some increments ). The status file showed that it used a bit more than 1G of memory...

Thank you Goldthorpe. It is rather exciting to share and learn in an unconvential way. I have learnt quite a bit while trying to answer the posts here. By the way, I looked at your webpage at analysis demon too. Seems like you have enormous experience in this field. You are infact very...

You can define the 'Damage Initiation' and 'Damage Evolution' in the material and based upon your defintions abaqus will determine if an element has failed or not. If it has failed then it will no longer be used in calculation. And if you visually want to remove the elements from screen you can...

6.8-2 definetly has very impressive CEL capabilities. You can use the following site to upload the CAE file. www.yousendit.com Once you have uploaded, you will get a link the file, and post the link back to this thread. Probably tomorrow we can find a solution. Regards Guru...

Hi Goldthorpe. unfortunately I dont have such script. Probably someone else will help or you can set out to write your own script. After all, writing a Shell script is not difficult than running Finite Element Simulation :) Good luck and regards Guru www.abaqusguru.blogspot.com

yes..This FSI stuff is difficult. If possible can the input file be uploaded? I understand that the file can be very big as the number of variables is around 2M. Also can you specify the version of abaqus you are using, just in case you manage to upload the file, so that we can test it? Guru...

Alrite!! I overlooked something. The Explicit Packager itself is giving problems. So the solver itself hasnt started yet. It is unlikely that the sta file exists. Check for error in dat file. Guru www.abaqusguru.blogspot.com

Hi Probably not a elegant solution. But can work, especially if the model is small. Get the stress value of all the nodes for the complete time [10s] as XY Data. Operate on these XY Data and use the Max Envelope Function. The resulting curve is the plot of Maximum Stress over time. Guru...

Hi lets say 'odb' is the ODB varible, which has an instance called 'PART-1-1', which in turn contains a nodeset called 'TEST', then the following code will give the label of the first entry in the set odb.rootAssembly.instances['PART-1-1'].nodeSets['TEST'].nodes[0].label Guru...

As Noirom has mentioned, without looking at the sta file, you cannot make any assumptions about the cause of problem. And you dont need to define any parameters for penalty for general contact. By default it takes some parameters. Only if you want to define non-default parameters you have to...

Hi I donot know about the Sun Grid Engine, but usually when running jobs in clusters, if one of the jobs running in one nodes is killed, then the whole job gets terminated. So login to the node ( preferably the master node ) and find the process ( use top or ps commands ) kill the process...

Hi Issares By default, Abaqus Viewer Averages the results inside the ODB Regions. So if you have different section defintions in the model, each region with different section properties is considered as a different ODB Region and will be averaged seperately. To avoid this, you can change the...

Noirom84 is right. Freuquency extraction is a Linear Petrubation Step. So by defintion it cant accomodate the non-linearities like Contacts. The Frequency Extraction considers the intial state at which the step starts and maintains that. That means, if a contact is closed at the begining of...

Hi all, Does anyone use ANSA and or MEDINA preprocesors to create input files for Abaqus? When so, did you face difference in results when defining BEAM ORIENTATION? I am not able to ascertain for sure, if the BEAM ORIENTATION defined by these preprocessors is consistent with that of ABAQUS. I...

UEXTERNALDB : This subroutine is called at the end of every increment. You can call other programs from this. URDFIL : This reads the file file. So in principle you can read the fil file and and do some calulcations on the field values. But to set the time increment.? anyone knows?

if you have the input file then directly submit that file to abaqus solver. abaqus job=<inputfilename.inp> Then check the log and dat file

What is the error message you get?
