    Workbench and APDL Parameterization Question

    Hello All, I am trying to perform a simple optimization of a cylinder where the surface area is minimized. I couldn't find a way to parametrize the surface area in both Workbench and APDL. I would be glad if anyone could help me with this. Thanks, mdan

    Maintain distance between two parts when changing extrusion of one part

    Hey guys, Is there a way of maintaining the distance of two parts when changing the extrusion of one part? Obviously I want this to be done automatically by abaqus. Cheers

    SIMULIA Isight - Condition Equation

    Hello guys In my Isight project, I have two variables A and B. The relationship between A and B should be that A is always double B. I tried Optimization1.A = 2*Optimization1.B and Optimization1A = Optimization1.B+Optimization1.B , but this weren't accepted. This is an optimization project BTW...

    Optimization of a honeycomb structure

    Hello guys I created a honeycomb structure under blast loads using the Dynamic/Explicit step. But due to Abaqus inability to optimize explicit analysis I had to mirror the blast loads into static loads under Static, General step. The results aren't perfect but it will do. Now if anyone could...

    Mirroring blast load affects

    Is there a way of mirroring blast loads (CONWEP) into static loads and get accurate similarities? In my model, I simulated a blast load acting on a honeycomb and my objective is to optimize the honeycomb structure to reduce displacement but due to the fact that the optimization module in Abaqus...

    Optimization Process cannot run an explicit analysis. Abaqus error.

    Hello guys, I am working on a model that I am trying to optimize. I used the CONWEP feature in Abaqus to create blast loads, I want to optimize the model such that displacement is reduced. When I tried to run the optimization process I got an error saying that Optimization process cannot run an...
