Hi
I'm trying to get a license usage summary using the "abaqus licensing usage -summary" command. The return line says that a .csv file has been created but I can't seem to locate it. Does anyone know where the default location for this file will be?
Cheers
Hi
I was wondering if there's a way to excluded edge to edge contact in a explicit general contact interaction? CAE gives you the option to excluded surface pairs but not edge pairs.
I have two beam parts with different section properties (pipe and circular) assembled concentrically. These...
Hi
I've received uniaxial tension test data for a range of materials. Each material test was repeated either three or five times. I'd like to establish an appropriate UTS limit for each material. At the moment I'm taking the minimum stress at failure from the range of test data -10%. I was...
Hi
I'm trying to model the rest position, due to self-weight, of an assembly of interlocking components around a fixed radius. The fixed radius is defined as contact with a rigid surface. I then intend to apply a tension to the system. I've assembled the interlocking components as close to a...
Hi
I'm using Abaqus Aqua to analyse jacket structures. Currently my .odb files contain no information on stress in the beam elements of the jacket, even though it is selected as a field output request. I've tried both general static stress and implicit dynamic analysis steps with the same...
Hi
I have a script that extracts specific field outputs from predefined element sets in my odb files. I'd like to be able to identify the material assignment of each element set that my script processes. I can't seem to find a method of identifying the element set's material assignment.
Would...
Hi
I'm having some problems trying to model beam on beam contact in Abaqus. I've been able to model beam on beam contact in standard by modifying the model keywords to include edge to edge contact formulation. However, the number of beam contacts is resulting in a slow or non converging model...
