    Material failure and element deletion in Abaqus/Explicit

    Hi, I'm trying to implement material failure in its simplest form, as it is available in Abaqus/CAE at the elasticity table (fail stress). Even when I put small values (e.g. 0.2), the analysis shows my slab reaching a stress of 68 without failing. Where am I wrong? How can I correctly implement...

    Abaqus/Explicit contact overclosures and excessive rotations

    Hi, Can anyone help me understand why is Abaqus issuing an "excessive rotation" error and aborting an analysis, when this analysis is using the explicit dynamic solver? You can find attached the error from the status file screenshot. I also attach the message file with a warning about the...

    Memory settings for Abaqus/Explicit in a HPC cluster

    Hello, Anyone with high performance computing experience here? I am executing a large Abaqus/Explicit model in a cluster using the following command: bsub -J Abaqus_solve -W 4:00 -n 5 -R "rusage[mem=4096]" abaqus job=3Dframe input=3Dframe.inp cpus=5 The memory setting is 80% by default so I'm...

Documentation, which is usually pretty good, seems overly complicated in this case and somehow missing some information (which could be "common sense", but not to me). - Do...
