    Abaqus CAE extremely slow

    Hi FEIM, I am not really an expert, and you better ask someone who has more experience in this field. But what I am doing right now is: - Using CAE. Later, I will start using input files or scripts; but first, I want to make sure that what I am doing is right. - I am using a 3D model of...

    Abaqus CAE extremely slow

    IBS, After reinstalling Abaqus, the problem persisted. Finally ICT people from my University created a new profile within the computer, and Abaqus has finally started working properly. I have limited capacity to make important changes in the computer, so I haven't been able to sort out what the...

    Bridge analysis

    Sorry, I didn´t read you were doing a 2D analysis. I don´t know what your problem can be...

    Abaqus CAE extremely slow

    IBS: the problem is the CAE preprocessor. I just want to modify some parameters such as load value, time period, etc. and when I click the OK button, this is when Abaqus takes 2-3 minutes to come back to activity. In this inactivity period, if I try to close Abaqus, suddenly the following...

    Abaqus CAE extremely slow

    I have just tried to edit the models in a different computer and they have worked fine. Abaqus CAE was running as usual... Do you know any option to delete temporary files or any other similar documents Abaqus could create (recovery files, etc.)? Thank you so much.

    Abaqus CAE extremely slow

    Many thanks to both of you. I´ll explain my problem briefly: I have a 80-m-span deck. I want to start analyzing the dynamic problems it may present due to a moving load (vehicle). An initial approximation I am doing is divide the whole deck in small surfaces: 1m long and width depending on the...

    Abaqus CAE extremely slow

    Thanks IceBreakerSours for the advice. I will try what you say. I am completely new with Abaqus, and I just wanted to start using it with the CAE, and once I understand how the software works, start using input files or scripts. I used to work with Ansys, and I know the advantages of modifying...

    Bridge analysis

    I meant that the SF/SM output seems to be the correct one. One reason for not having the results you expect could be plotting or reading the incorrect internal forces, i.e. instead of the longitudinal bending moment of the deck, the torsional moment; and so on.

    Abaqus CAE extremely slow

    Thanks Rob for your reply. Unfortunately, there isn´t any important change and Abaqus is still running very slowly...

    Abaqus CAE extremely slow

    Hi all, I am using Abaqus CAE, and I am noticing extremely slow speed when working with CAE windows. I am running a dynamic analysis of a bridge, in which I have created many steps, representing the moving load. But when I try to change an option (the time period for a step for instance) once I...

    Bridge analysis

    I am also using SF/SM output; in my case results seem to be correct. You may pay attention to coordinate system orientation, and the results you are plotting.
