    Cohesive elements

    OK!! I will try! At first it´s hard to face such quantity of information. But you are right, at college we used to have all the information summarized in a book, but now we have to get it by ourself. Thanks again!

    Cohesive elements

    Yes, I was asking if someone has online documentation, because i´ve tried to find documents but none of them valuable. Thanks anyway IceBreakerSours, I usually follow all your recommendation due to your experience. Regards.

    Hysteresis loop

    Hi! Anybody knows how to obtain the hysteresis loop using abaqus? I´m traying to make a dynamic analysis using "period" in the amplitude option. I want to get the graph i´ve attached. Thanks!

    Energy Store and return

    Yes, you are right in everything. I´ve started working with Abaqus recently. Even more with dynamic analysis. I´ve read a lot of theory, but i know that ít´s not enough. Up to now i´ve done lots of static analysis to get the stresses and displacements. Once i´ve defined the geometry of the...

    Contact Pressure diverges when mesh on slave surface is refined

    Hey CoolFL, i´ve seen the .cae you uploaded, i´m quite new doing FEM analysis but, so... if you want you can take my advice, or wait to another answer. Some recomendations i have learned working hard xDDD: Change initial incremet size to 0,01 and maximun to 0,1. I don´t know which units are you...

    Energy Store and return

    I am making a research in the field of prosthetic foots and i want to study how the prosthesis stores and returns the energy due to the strain energy. Which kind of analysis should i run? Dynamic? Static? Which outputs should i active? It´s supposed that when the prosthesis touches the ground...

    TSAI WU

    Hi, At home i have Abaqus 6.14 and in the outputs i can choose tsai wu, and tsai hill. But at my work i´m using abaqus 6.13, and this options are not available. I don´t know if it is a matter of license or because abaqus 6.14 has been updated and includes those possibilities. I would bet for...

    Contact Pressure diverges when mesh on slave surface is refined

    In order to improve the convergence, you can active the contact control. But then you must make sure that the energy disipated is under 5% more or less. ALLIE vs ALLSE

    Contact Pressure diverges when mesh on slave surface is refined

    Linear elements please, don´t use quadratic elements with contacts.

    Abaqus: torsion in a circular tube

    I´VE GOT IT!!! When you create the distributing coupling, create a surface, not a node set, and link the master node with the surface. Regards.

    Abaqus: torsion in a circular tube

    UFFF, I don´t like it.... I´m going to try different analyisis. If i achieve something i will tell you.

    Abaqus: torsion in a circular tube

    Ummmm, I had the same problem the last year when i was designing a formula student car steering system... I was new doing FEM analysis and if i see the results, maybe i would be ashamed!!! hahahaha. Now i am more experienced and i would approach the problem as follows: Put the boundary...

    Dynamic analysis. Valuable information.

    Hey guys! I´m new doing dynamic analysis, and i don´t want to put my foot in it! Could someone link some information about dynamic analysis? Thanks!

    I´m quite new using abaqus. But in my company there is a lot of people with wide experience in aeronautics. I will ask about your question!

    Wow. I have no idea. Which version of abaqus are you using?
