Yeah, I've used the verify mesh tool to create a set containing the elements with low stable time (PoorElements-set in the Edit Mass Scaling dialog window - see snip above).
There aren't any warning messages related to mass scaling.
I've tried scaling the whole model by a factor (100) and the stable time incr is now 2,72e-06.
But I'm not sure whether applying the mass scaling on all elements is suitable for my model since I only wanted to apply it to finite elements...
hi,
I'm modeling a cyclic loaded masonry wall in abaqus explicit.
Since the model is relatively large, I've tried to use mass scaling to slightly adjust the stable time increment and reduce the computation time.
I have an initial step + 4 additional steps, and I've assigned mass scaling in the...
I'll try to do the calculation with the modified viscosity coefficient but I'll also try the dynamic analysis.
I have several testing specimens and expect relatively large displacements so I think the dynamic analysis could be more suitable.
Can you please tell me, is dynamic explicit analysis...
yeah,I've already assigned the viscosity coefficient (=0.002).
I can try to increase the value of the coefficient.
Do you have any advice on choosing the values of the viscosity coefficient? If I understood correctly, it's related to the size of the time increment..

hi,
im modeling a cyclic loaded masonry wall in abaqus.
I keep getting warnings such as:
