Hi all,
I'm working on a model to estimate the pre-stress in a measured abdominal aortic geometry. To do so, I use an initial condition in which stress is read from the ODB file of a previous simulation using:
*INITIAL CONDITIONS, TYPE=STRESS, FILE=Cylinder_BI_01.odb
This works fine, but I...
Hi all,
As a subproject in my PhD project, I'm comparing Ansys and Abaqus (geometrically) nonlinear solution methods. I used a simple cylinder to represent an artery and modelled it with a simple Neo-Hookean material model. Large deformations (NLGEOM) are turned on (hence the non-linearity). I...
