I solved the problem. Does anyone know how can I write the time-history of some parts to a text file? I know how to get all my data on XY plot but can't export them. I appreciate your help.
I have applied a dynamic implicit, quasi-static step. The 6 load components from the hub are applied simultaneously in the same step. Gravity is also added in the same step. However, once I solve my analysis I can't see stress outputs for each time step as specified in the time-histories as...
I have the time histories of six hub load components (3 forces and 3 moments) of a wind turbine. The turbine and the supporting structure have been modelled in a separate FE model which takes into account the dynamic of various components, i.e. supporting structure, hub and blades and the...
Hello everyone,
I have built a 3D reinforced concrete frame in ABAQUS. The model is built in SI(m) units. I have also implemented a Damaged Concrete Plasticity model in my material definition and I have specified a compression stress of 51000000 N/m2 and a tensile stress of 2333333.33 N/m2. The...
Thanks Corus. I had already solved the problem. I used truss elements which have only 3DOF. Beams shouldn't be used therefore I guess the video is a bit misleading although he seems to make it work. He uses wire as part and beam as section (in the second part of the video). He should use truss...
This is exactly what is happening as the error occurs on DOF 6 which I believe is twist (rotation around the beam axis). I thought the embedded region constraint would have prevented that though.
Any suggestion how to solve this? I am only trying to repeat this exercise...
Hello everyone,
I have been trying to model in ABAQUS (I am new to the software) a simple supported reinforced concrete beam. I have used solid elements for the concrete beam and wire elements for longitudinal rebars and stirrups.
The simulation keeps failing for 'numerical singularity'...
