    Acoustic-Structural Coupling in Abaqus

    Yes. TIE constraint is enougth. Don't use SIM architecture to eigenanalysis!!!!!!!!!

    Acoustic-Structural Coupling in Abaqus

    From 6.10.1 Acoustic, shock, and coupled acoustic-structural analysis "Projecting and storing the acoustic coupling matrix during the natural frequency extraction is also available for the Lanczos eigensolver based on the SIM architecture." "Abaqus by default projects and stores the acoustic...

    [Urgent] Renaming output variables of the .odb file?

    from abaqus import * from abaqusConstants import * import odbAccess Odb='OdbName.odb' odb = odbAccess.openOdb(path=Odb) StepName='StepName' newStepName='newStepName' nFrames=odb.steps[StepName].frames.__len__() #frames number StepTime=odb.steps[StepName].frames[-1].frameValue #total time...

    [Urgent] Renaming output variables of the .odb file?

    Excelent! My mistake. [afro2] Keep the +1 because if you have 200 increments, incrementNumber it's 199 and range(199) will give you [0, 1, ... , 198] from abaqus import * from abaqusConstants import * import odbAccess Odb='OdbName.odb' odb = odbAccess.openOdb(path=Odb) StepName='StepName'...

    [Urgent] Renaming output variables of the .odb file?

    After running the code, type 'N' in the Kernel Command Line Interface (you can find it at the bottom of Abaqus CAE >>>) rrg1016 gmail account

    [Urgent] Renaming output variables of the .odb file?

    As I could see, the time between the original step and the time of the new one are equals. Maybe you are comparing the increments. The unsolved problem then is the 'index out of range' error. I recommend you to try: - The easy way is to replace the variable 'nFrames' by an integer number like...

    [Urgent] Renaming output variables of the .odb file?

    I revised the code and found some mistakes but nothing related with the indexError. Also I added a +1 at the for loop to complete all the frames. About the re-ranging of the time domain I did't see what you said. I send you some screen shots: Old step: New step: Odb information It's...

    Fluid Structure Interaction

    It is only a warning message and shouldn't abort the job. Search in the Data File and Message File the error message. Do it in both jobs.

    [Urgent] Renaming output variables of the .odb file?

    Hello. Just replace 'odbFileName.odb' with your odb file, and 'stepName' with your step name. Execute this script setting the Work Directory of Abaqus CAE in the same path of your odb file. Enjoy! from abaqus import * from abaqusConstants import * import odbAccess Odb='odbFileName.odb'...

    Defininig contact surface's for loads in Abaqus submodeling

    The same loads and BC should be applied to the submodel. To transfer the displacements from the global model to the submodel use the BC that Mustaine3 indicates you. Check page 24 for an example: http://imechanica.org/files/l10-large-models_2.pdf

    Abaqus wear subroutine

    I model wear once. I could reproduce the simple model of the next thesis: http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/10681/1/ThesisFinal.pdf Here there is a code for the subroutine. Everything is carefully descripted. It is a great work. If you are starting to use UMESHMOTION, I advice to you to start...

    Abaqus Script

    Something usefull is to debug your code line by line. You can do this from the abaqus PDE. Or also you can copy and paste line by line of your code in the Kernel Command Line at the bottom of the window of abaqus CAE (you can see it cliking on the >>> icon).

    Too many attempts made for this increment - 3D Truss

    As Mustaine said check your unit system. The structure units are in mm and the rest of your parameters are in m. Your structure have 190km! table 2-1: Consistent units http://imechanica.org/files/1-4%20CAE%20Example.pdf

    Solid to solid interaction not working

    Another thing that you can do is to analyze COPEN... If the variable CPRESS=0, COPEN should be >0 (Not in contact yet). If this statment is false, there is something strange!

    railway modeling

    It is impossible to answer that, because your question is very inespecific. Have you ever used abaqus? What are you trying to modeling? The wheel-rail? The ground? The whole train? And... what are you looking for? Fatigue? Vibrations? Static Stresses?

    SubModeling in Abaqus

    Your question is very vague... but I can tell you this: There is a GLOBAL MODEL and a SUBMODEL. I suppose that you are asking if you can use a different step on the SUBMODEL. It is a posibility if you have the specific purpose. You can make a dynamic step in your GLOBAL MODEL and for some...

    How to input acceleration?

    Body force have a different definition than gravity. I suppose that you account this difference. I have a few possible causes for the limited displacement of the spine: - Maybe you have a problem with the units (units of loads or materials). - I don't know anything about spines, but maybe the...

    How to input acceleration?

    What kind of analysis are you doing? Static, dynamic? To start i will do a static analysis. If you create the load "Gravity" , you should create the BC to restrict the movement of the spine. The disc is another part? how is it conected to the spine?
