Hi there, I'm doing some impact analysis on pipes using Abaqus/Explicit and i've tried using the incompatible brick element C3D8I as it performs better during bending. But, i'm getting strange results as the object hitting the pipe at first creates contact and deforms the pipe, but then...

Hi, Im doing some impact analysis in Abaqus/Explicit involving double layer pipes. The pipes are modeled with a solid section at the impact area and shells for the rest of the geometry to reduce computational costs. In the resent analysis the two layers must be fully bonded/glued together and...

Thanks!

Hi Im analysing some impact scenarios on pipes in abaqus explicit and wants to model the impact area with solid elements and the rest with shell elements. Any ideas on how to model the connection between the two element types in the CAE module? I've looked at MPCs but it seems to only be...
