    help with meshed cross sections in ABAQUS

    I am trying to use the 'meshed cross section' which would find the cross sectional properties and then use them in my main file. But I am persistently getting an error that my properties are not being assigned due to some reason. could anyone please help me and let me know whats wrong in this...

    help with meshed cross sections in ABAQUS

    i am using warpd2d4 elements to model a cross section for a beam element BB31OS i followed the same procedure as told in the following link.. http://129.97.46.200:2080/v6.10ef/books/usb/default.htm?startat=pt04ch10s05at32.html i made an input file and saved it as .bsp. now, how do i get my...

    Warping conditions on beam element in ABAQUS

    I have modeled the same B31OS .. but could you have a look at the following code and advise on how to fix/free the warping DOF(7th) : i have added a new displacement BC named 'warping_edit'. could someone please tell me how to add the warping function here? # -*- coding: mbcs -*- from...

    Warping conditions on beam element in ABAQUS

    sir, I have read this section and the rest of the relevant parts. The problem is I don't know how to access this "w". I can't find it anywhere. It says its only available in ABAQUS standard/.. does that mean its not available in the graphical user interface.. and i will need to create an input...

    Warping conditions on beam element in ABAQUS

    Thanks a lot for the detailed response. I really appreciate your help.. I am looking to actually model a warping condition in a W 8 x 67 section. I am required to use a 3D beam section (line element), and model it as a 7 DOF system at each node. However, I can't find how to access the seventh...

    Warping conditions on beam element in ABAQUS

    Hello, I am trying to model a beam element in ABAQUS but it is not taking any warping restraints for the model. It says that I cannot impose displacement, rotation and angular velocity restrictions at a node (which is the case for warping condition Theta'=0). Could anyone please guide me as to...

    Hello, I am trying to model a beam element in ABAQUS but it is not taking any warping restraints for the model. It says that I cannot impose displacement, rotation and angular velocity restrictions at a node (which is the case for warping condition Theta'=0). Could anyone please guide me as to...
