    Predicting the Distribution of Electroplated Coatings

    I am trying to create a simulation for predicting the distribution of electroplated coatings based on the following conference paper: http://www.ansys.com/staticassets/ANSYS/staticassets/resourcelibrary/confpaper/2004-Int-ANSYS-Conf-43.PDF Basically, you use the electric field analysis...

    Slave deformable surface penetrating Master rigid surface

    Hello, I am modelling a rolling simulation. The roller is an analytic rigid body and the workpiece is deformable with C3D8R elements. The contact is Surface-to-Surface contact (Explicit). I cannot figure out how to prevent the workpiece from penetrating the analytic rigid. I was hoping...

    How to apply Line Load in through thickness direction for Plane Strain model?

    Could you clarify what you mean by "apply line load"

    ABAQUS: 125257 elements have missing property definitions and partition on a curved surface

    Did you try reassigning the Sections to the parts after you partitioned them? Partitioning allows to assign different sections to the same part... it might have impacted your original Section Assignment. Regarding the partition... you should post an image of what you are trying to mesh so it...

    ABAQUS: 125257 elements have missing property definitions and partition on a curved surface

    You have to create a Section based on the Material Properties you have defined and assign that Section to the part in the Model Tree.

    Results of "CAREA"

    Does anyone have experience with the History Output Request CAREA (Total area in contact, defined as the sum of all the facets where there is contact force) I am simulating two workpieces in contact as they are deformed. However, the CAREA output is much less than what the area of contact...

    Modelling Roller and Plate in 2D

    What if I am interested in deformation in view shown in the bottom left image of my first post? Can I simply create a rigid body rectangular profile to represent the roll compressing the plate? I am just having difficulty understanding when plane strain assumption/model can be applied. I'm...

    Modelling Roller and Plate in 2D

    Hello everyone, I am new to Abaqus but am interested in modelling the deformation of a roller against a plate (Attached picture for reference). I am investigating the impact wheel geometry has on the deformation. I was wondering if it is possible to initially simplify the analysis initially...
