    Ductile damage, x65 pipe

    Hi FEA way, I have no experimental data. My dissertation is purely numerical. I have stress strain curves that I have converted to True and applied to the plastic properties, is there a way to determine the values in question using those figures? i.e. yield stress and plastic strain?

    Ductile damage, x65 pipe

    Can I get some help please in obtaining/calculating values to input for FRACTURE STRAIN, STRESS TRIAXILITY and STRAIN RATE within the Damage for Ductile Metals material behaviour please? I have seen the Hooputra documentation, I am still confused. Thanks in advance

    *ORIENTATION, DEFINITION=OFFSET TO NODES IS NOT PERMITTED WITH A KINEMATIC COUPLING DEFINITION

    Thanks for your reply. I can't remember doing that. My individual parts have cylindrical coordinate systems applied, and coupling constraints to reference points on them. I wanted to use cylindrical because I've got a pipeline and a wrap, they're symmetrical about the Z axis. And I should...

    *ORIENTATION, DEFINITION=OFFSET TO NODES IS NOT PERMITTED WITH A KINEMATIC COUPLING DEFINITION

    Need help with this, it's really causing me bad anxiety. also getting errors *COUPLING, FILES "JOB-8.INP", LINE 339382; PARAMETER ORIENTATION REQUIRES A VALUE That error comes up 4 times and then the error in the subject aborts the study. This is an analysis of a steel pipeline (3D solid...

    Help with creating a feature

    Hi, thank you for your reply. I did try to do an extruded cut, after having projected some edges from my model. I got some intersection warnings when trying the cut though. I will suppress some features and try again. Thanks

    Help with creating a feature

    Hi there, new to the forum so look forward to learning a few things. I'm having trouble with an abaqus model, I've made a steel pipeline and want to simulate some metal loss due to corrosion on the inside diameter. I have included a picture of the type of feature I want to achieve, but apart...
