Hi all,
In ABAQUS, ELCD parameter is defined as: Total energy dissipated in the element by creep, swelling, and viscoelasticity. I have checked the ABAQUS manuals but could not find the equation that is used to calculate this parameter.
Does anyone know how ELCD is calculated in ABAQUS?
Any...
Hi all,
In Abaqus, I have developed a viscoelastic FE model to simulate the loading of a truck tire on viscoelastic asphalt road. I have applied a sinusoidal truck tire load on the pavement. I plan to use CENER (creep dissipation energy density) to calculate dissipated energy under the tire...
