Hello,
I have to model a 3D metallic structure in which several (around 30) slave surfaces are in contact with several master surfaces (around 30 too).
I use "hard contact" for normal behaviour and "penalty" for tangential behaviour.
Each slave surface is composed of approximately 10 000 3D...
Hello, I'm using the "fminsearch" function on Scilab.
My function "f" to minimize depends of two parameters, say "p1" and "p2"
My problem is that the variation of "p1" and "p2" during the fminsearch is very low.
For example, if p1=10 and p2=50, the first try of fminsearch will be p1'=10.5 and...
Hello,
I'm using the "coupled temperature-displacement" procedure for creep with two kinds of elements :
-C3D10MT
-C3D4T (where the Von Mises stress is low) to reduce the computing time.
My problem is that Abaqus gives me this error message :"the selected geometry order will introduce an...
Hello everyone,
I try to model in 2D a part under isostatic pressure which means I need to put a pressure in the direction 3 too.
However with Generalized plane strain elements it is only possible to put a concentrated load on the reference point.
Does someone know how i could enforce an axial...
