Hello everyone, I want to analyse a structure for its Ultimate limit state and for that I need the moments due to the self weigth and due to an distrubuted applied load. SEPERATElY. To do this I created, apart from the already existing dead load, a load pattern for this distributed load with...

Hello everyone! I am trying to find out the total time ABAQUS took to run the analysis, but only when the analysis is completed does the monitor function displays the ending time. When the job aborts (even when it reached the number of steps I establish) the only time it displays is the...

Hello everyone! So I am trying to save animation in ABAQUS but I don't want the legend of the name of the step/frame/total time to appear. Is there a way to deactivate that?? Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone! I am analyzing an SHS steel truss, simply supported, with concentrated forces (in Newtons) applied in the top nodes. The loads are applied in reference points that are constrained, type coupling, to the section of the chord. All the top nodes have a boundary condition to prevent...

Hello everyone, I am analyzing a steel SHS truss, with am applied displacement at the tip. The truss displacement is laterally constrained and in that same sections, springs were modelled to simulate the fact that in a previous experimental test the lateral constraining system was at a certain...

Hello everyone, I'm analyzing a truss where I apply a vertical displacement (u2 direction and applied as 400mm) as well as an out of plane displacement (of 100 mm) in a reference point (RP1) that is connected to the chord section by a coupling constrain. At the same point, two springs were...

Hello everyone! So I'm doing an analysis on a big truss and to draw the welds I'm using the sketch option to partition the faces. That was until this warning appeared: Warning: The limit for coplanar entities has been exceeded; therefore, no entities will be automatically projected onto this...

Hello everyone, I'm trying to rotate an instance in Abaqus, displayed in the picture below. Every time I try it rotates along the x axis although I want to do it along the y axis. Can anyone help me? Thank you so much in advance.

Hello everyone! So I have a truss modeled in Abaqus. For that, I made all the parts individually (the superior chord, inferior chord, and diagonals) and then went to the Assembly and created an instance to organize the truss and finally merged everything together. Now I wanted to change the...

Hello everyone, I have a 3D shell truss that as a chord with a hole used to pass a brace. Since now I want to remove that brace from the chord I'm left with a hole. Does anyone know an easy geometry property that I can use to fill that hole? I'll leave an image for better understanding. Thank...

Hello everyone, So I have a CHS truss that is encastrated in the ending edges and this is defined in the initial step. But in the next step, where I apply a vertical load, I wanted to allow that boundary condition to rotate( I will leave a picture for a better understanding of the movement I...

Hello, I'm modeling a truss in Abaqus and to simulate a lateral device that restrains the truss from moving horizontally and as a gap between itself and the truss, I used a connector as a nonlinear spring. I have a question, what happens, in Abaqus when the gap is fulfilled as in, does it...

Hello, I'm trying to simulate an experimental contact between a truss and a constraining lateral device due to a vertical load, in ABAQUS. The contact happened because the truss had an imperfection that made it have a little horizontal displacement instead of just vertical. To simulate this in...

Hello, I am modeling a truss subjected to a vertical displacement(load) in the tip. The problem I'm having is, after a experimental analyses I observed buckling in the chord and a contact between the truss chord and a restraining lateral device That incread the rigidity of the truss( the truss...
