    Simulation with 2 disconnected parts

    Hi all, I am trying to do a simulation where a hemispherical cup is placed into some sort of mold (see image). The cup is a little bit larger than the mold, and the idea is that the cup is forced in and deforms (in the plasticity range). Then, by friction the cup should stay in place. My goal...

    Greetings all, Maybe a simple question, but I can't find an easy way to do this. I have a hemisphere with a diameter of 25mm, see attachment. My goal is to define two elemen sets to apply different material properties. One element sets that contains all inner elements (let's say all the...

    Abaqus Disk Space

I checked the sizes of all the files (odb, cae etc) and they do not even add up to 0.5 gb. When I deleted all the files, I...

    Initial conditions of an UMAT Subroutine

    Hi all, I wrote an UMAT-subroutine which changes the Youngs modulus based on the strains. It seems to work, except that the initial conditions of the state variables are not read by Abaqus. I defined the intial state variables in an SDVINI subroutine, and put this in the same file as the UMAT...
