    Cutting Simulation-Stresses on Tool

    Hello community, I am trying to calculate the stresses during a cutting sequence. However I can not see the stresses on the tool, only on the workpiece What I mean is as follows: What I mean to accomplish is to show the stress contours on the tool as well as the workpiece. Both the tool and...

    FE Machining in Abaqus

    Hello community, I have to simulate a model of 2D orthogonal cutting in Abaqus/Explicit. I have a major problem in defining the correct interaction so that the chip interacts with itself when it curves. The result I get is something like this: Does anyone know of a way to stop the chip...

    Chip self contact in 2D orthogonal cutting

    Hello community, I have the following simulation problem. I an trying to simulate a case of 2D orthogonal cutting. The chip is normally created but when it curls up there is no interaction between the surfaces. I have tried to use the self contact on the outermost surface of the workpiece but...

    Damage Evolution definition in 2D Orthogonal Cutting

    Hello community, could someone enlighten me regarding the equivalent plastic displacement parameter input? My material is defined with the Johnson-Cook model but I cannot seem to find an accurate way of calculating the equivalent plastic displacement. The problem I am trying to simulate is a...

    2D Orthogonal Cutting - Contact Definition

    Hello community, I am trying to simulate a simple 2D example of orthogonal cutting as shown in the pic below: However, the problem I face is that of the interaction definition. It is a 2D simulation, so I cannot use the general contact algorithm. So I use the surface-to-surface algorithm...

    Spatially varying displacement boundary condition-Analytical field

    Hello community, I have the following simulation problem. I want to simulate the motion of a rigid body along another deformable body. The rigid body moves along a curve that is given by a function. I need a way to implement this curve to Abaqus. I insert the function via the analytical field...

    ABAQUS :Problem with analytical field definition and implementation in Boundary Condition

    Hello community, I have the following problem: I am trying to simulate a cutting process in which the tool needs to follow a specific route along the part. The route is defined by a specific mathematical sentence. I define the sentence in the analytical field toolset and I define a...

    Trajectory along the cutting path

    Hello community, I am trying to simulate a simple cutting technique in which the cutting tool needs to follow a trajectory along the work piece. The following pic illustrates my assembly and the black line is the trajectory my tool needs to follow. My guess is to mess with the analytical...

    Chip Formation in Orthogonal Cutting

    Hello community, What element should I use in an orthogonal cutting simulation in order to view the chip formation? In my simulation I use C3D8R but due to the STATUS parameter in the Field Output Request and the element deletion choice in the element type window the deformed elements are...

    Drilling Simulation

    Hello community, I have the following problem when I try to simulate a drilling technique with a drill head rotating only around the vertical axis not doing any movement (up or down) at all. The job only runs for a very small rotational velocity and if I try the same problem for a higher...

    Orhtogonal Cutting-Extreme deformation

    Hello community, I am trying to simulate a simple orthogonal cutting and I am getting the extremely distorted illustration when the job is completed. At first the simulation is as following: Then And finally the distorted illustration:

    Meshing an imported drill model

    Hello, I have this drill model which was first exported from CREO in CATIA 5 form in order to be imported as a part in Abaqus. Even if i have used virtual topology to ignore any angles or geometry that would otherwise make meshing impossible i still get the above message: "The selected regions...

    UNABLE TO OPEN INPUT FILE ON UNIT 5

    Hello community, I have the below mentioned problem while running 6.14 version of Abaqus: UNABLE TO OPEN INPUT FILE ON UNIT 5. FILENAME C:\Users\249A~1\AppData\Local\Temp\ÂáããÝëçò_Job-1_10488\Job-1_f.inp. The results will not show no matter what I do.
