    How to define material failure

    Yes, i have tried numerous options and combinations. None worked. Can someone tell me what exactly i have to define: Elastic material? Plastic material? Ductile damage? I just need one working example.

    How to define material failure

    I am trying to evaluate an impact analysis using abaqus explicit (bullet vs. armoured plate). I can't figure out how to define material property so that the plate brakes when certain stress or strain is reached. Any help appreiated.

    PC appropriate equipment in order to run large ABAQUS job

    By 20% boost I meant 20% less time needed to complete a calculation. The choice of OS (lin/XP/Vista) is not that crucial but using 64 bit system is really worth it if you do a lot of computing. I use linux mainly for two reasons: - uses less RAM so there is more available for ABAQUS -...

    PC appropriate equipment in order to run large ABAQUS job

    The first thing to do is to start using linux 64 bit - it gives you 20% boost without any additional cost. The second thing is it invest in more RAM and use ramdisk for scractch dir - it gives you additional 30% boost.

    Python Command for Abaqus getSequenceFromMask

    just drop it in to ABAQUS command line - at the bottom

    Python Command for Abaqus getSequenceFromMask

    masks are used so that the output in .rpy is less cluttered use this command: session.journalOptions.setValues(replayGeometry=COORDINATE, recoverGeometry=COORDINATE) and and the output will use findAt and coordinates.

    Scripting: Create a set encompassing all edges of a part

    Use this command in Abaqus: session.journalOptions.setValues(replayGeometry=COORDINATE, recoverGeometry=COORDINATE) This will enable you to see non-masked output in rec, rpy, and jnl files.

    Deleting internal sets

    I have a model with a huge number of redundand internal sets (approx. 18.000). I cannot find a way to delete them with GUI nor I can't find a reference to them as to use scripting to delete them. P.S. This problem relates to a Python scrypting memory leak post...

    Python scripting memory leak

    save-as doesn't work either

    Python scripting memory leak

    I wrote a script to propagate cracks through material and I found a peculiar memory leak. For instance I delete existing seams like this: for e in aPart.edges: mModel.rootAssembly.engineeringFeatures. deleteSeam(regions=regionToolset.Region(...
