Hello,
i am looking for a way to define DLOAD as field output variable. A simple line load is defined in user subroutine, which i would like to output on all the elements where defined.
In abaqus documentation at subroutine dload it says it is not avialable for output.
Is there maybe any...
Hello.
I am trying to model a simple preload of a screw in a double lap joint. As i apply the preload of 38kN for a M12 screw, it gives back an axial force at the end of app. 160N.
I am wondering if it is realistic. Deformation and everything looks good, also tried with different contact...
Hello!
I am looking for an efficient way of analysing bigger structures. The global analysis is a dynamic analysis, in which a local part, joint should be calculated in a local analysis in different time steps.
What would be the most efficient way for such analysis?
I tried submodeling...
Hi!
Based on my previous post (https://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=492174) I would like to have another question regarding this paper:
https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=a89bf026-d899-4ce8-9a09-62fb984f5c66&file=edgetosurfacecontact.PNG
It says at the contact definitions...
Hello.
Does anyone know how is a proper shell edge contact can be defined in Abaqus? More precisely contact between shell edge and another shell surface.
There is this paper attached about contact modelled in Abaqus. I mean the contact between the rigid bolt surface and the hole edge of the...
Hello!
I am trying to summirise the fatigue calculation steps for a joint based on Eurocode. As EC 1993.1.9 for steels says that with nominal stresses for the given Detail categories (FATCLASS-es?) one can make the calculation.
How could one calculate a stress concentration factor for complex...
Hello.
i would like to know how the bypass load in a complex riveted joint could be calculated? The fasteners are modelled with bush elements and the neighbouring shell elements show different von Mises stresses. The load propogation also not clear as the joint is complex and has 3D load case...
Hello,
i am currently trying to solve the issue of modelling many rivet connection in one joint using abaqus. With 3D-element rivets, using outer surface for contact is really time consuming. Even if the rivets are modelled with bigger element size.
What is the most reliable way of modeling lap...
