    Anisotropic properties in Abaqus: matrix rotation vs local CSYS

    Hello all, I'm currently working on the static electrical analysis of a piezoelectric membrane. Since the elastic, piezoelectric and dielectric properties are anisotropic, one is required to provide Abaqus with a local coordinate system. My question is regarding the difference between giving...

    Piezoelectric Circuits in ABAQUS

    Hello all, I'm trying to model a piezoelectric circuit in ABAQUS. So far I've been able to define the static problem and validate it based on previous work developed in ANSYS software. However, when it comes to the dynamic part of my analysis, I'm having a hard time in modelling a resistor that...

    How to implement a UEL subroutine in Abaqus to model an electric damper?

    Thank you for your response, I'll be sure to look up these FAQ. Yes, it's my first attempt at this sort of endeavour and I've already noticed the lack of support provided in this matter.

    How to implement a UEL subroutine in Abaqus to model an electric damper?

    Hello all, My goal here is to create a simple two-node element with 1 active DOF per node (electrical charge) through the Abaqus user subroutine UEL. This element would then be connected to a piezoelectric structure (a simple cube) that is being harmonically excited by an applied stress...
