    Acquiring LVDT and acceleration readings via PXI Chassis and NI-6361 module

    Hi all, I am using PXI chassis with a NI-6361 module to acquire LVDT and acceleration readings for a dynamic test. Both sensors are voltage sensors with external signal conditioning devices in order to help acquire the signal. There are three options in DAQmx programming; voltage, voltage...

    Mesh probelm using ABAQUS

    Hi all, I have extruded a cylinder from a roller and I cannot mesh it using hex elements. I only can mesh it using tet elements. Is there any way that I can mesh it using hex elements? I have attached an image for help. Thanks...

    Pin-Hinge connection using C3D8R

    Hi all, I have created a hole in a steel rectangular plate diameter of 10 mm. A pin dimensions of 10 mm and 50 mm in diameter and length passes though the hole of the plate.I have used C3D8R solid elements with reduced integration. The analysis is explicit with general contact interaction...

    Dynamic impact

    Hi friends, I am doing a simulation analysis of a dropped object from 4 meters with an initial velocity of 8.86 m/s. How can I model gravity in ABAQUS? Thanks.

    Frequency analysis with beam and solid elements

    Hi, I have carried out a frequency analysis of a simply supported beam by comparing the results between beam and solid elements. The beam elements match the solutions with my hand calculations. However, solid elements do not give very close solutions. Does anyone knows what the problem is with...

    Impact of rigid - deformable bodies using ABAQUS

    Hi. I am using solid elements to model the contact of a ball hitting a wall. I have defined the <explicit> selection in the element library (Mesh) with linear elements for the wall. IF the wall is supported on a steel frame where the steel frame has elastic properties, shall I choose the...
