I just wonder if Abaqus can be used to analyze drop forging of 3D models in a good way?
I know there's programs like Deform 3D, and Forge that are made just for this purpose, but it is possible to use abaqus?
If it is, any ideas where to find a turtorial on this?

Thanks again Martin.
I've now managed to run the spring back analysis :)
I had to change my first analysis file and separate the mesh into two parts one for tool and one for tube/blank.
This way I was able to just import the tube instance when doing spring back analysis.
However I was still...
Thanks again, I got some errormessages that I found in the .dat file.
I have now removed initial temperature from input file, and made the materials more simple not temp. dependent as the springback.inp analysis wouldn't work with the init temp setting.
I can now open the Springback.odb file...
Again thanks for your help Martin!
I've been looking some more into the input files, both my own and yours to try to figure out how to use this.
Am I right I need to run the spring-back analysis from the command prompt, "abaqus job=springback" if I call the new input file springback.inp?
I...
Thanks for your help! This is almost exactly the same thing I need to do.
However I still have some problems.
I took the input file with the IMPORT command from the example and tried to use it on my own analysis.
However when I try to import this file into Abaqus CAE it will open as a new...
Hi!
I'm trying to do spring back analysis on a tube that I bend using Abaqus Explicit.
I have tried just to make the bending mandrel bend the tube to 50 degrees, and then take it back to zero degrees, but the profile will then start oscillating.
What I need to do is to get the stresses from...
