I am using Abaqus for instability analysis in composite panels under shear.I successfully did the Eigenvalue buckling analysis so i need to analyze the exact behavior of the panel upto fracture with "Static, Riks" in Abaqus.
The imperfection to be introduced is the first eigenvalue buckling...
I've the same problem too, I happen to have used MPC Beam for creating a rigid body between the nodes of composite shell and a supporting beam at the edges but when I load the notepad edited .inp file and run the analysis the job aborts with erros and the new .inp file written for the analysis...
I found out the frame is modelled as a beam, but then the problem now i have is to connect the beams around the four edges of the plate with "pins"
Does anyone know how to connect beams with pins?
Hello Folks, I'm doing a linear buckling analysis of a shear loaded square composite panel.
For distribution of the shear load an isotropic frame is fastened around the edges of the panel. I'm supposed to design the plate as a beam with given length, height and material properties.
My question...
