Hi,
I am using Hypermesh. I am defining an ASET nodes for a model reduction, however, the nodes I am using are dependent nodes for an RBE3 element, so they cannot be used as my ASET.
I have defined coincident nodes at the same points as the nodes I want to define as my ASET and I want to use...
The objective is to comapre the response of the full and reduced models essentially just a large model reduction exercise. Im looking at relatively low frequencies <50 Hz.
I think a beam model will have to be the next step, i have tried to get the reduced model to work with no luck...
I could do that and i will try that tomorrow, however, the approach i want to take is to reduce the shell model i have, moreso because the stiffness of the full model is well represented in a model with only beam modes.
Im not sure making a 2D beam element model with provide that accuracy.
Hi,
I want to reduce a thin cylidrical shell model to a points along the centreline such that an equivalent beam model is formed with only bending modes. I am working in ABAQUS.
I have made a shell model, it has a non-circular cross section, uniform along length:
This model is partitioned...
Thankyou for responding!
I'm looking at the acceleration response of the free-free beam, the displacement response does just grow with time.
I dont want to fix anything in place, i want to model how the inclusion of a spring where the force is placed may change this acceleration response, if...
Hi,
I have modelled the transient response of a free-free (unconstrained) beam in ABAQUS, however, I now want to model the transient response when the force is placed on a spring. I have attached a rough sketch of the problem.
I have applied a two point spring to the beam model using a node...
