I used to use *symmetric model generation to generate my mesh in the previous version of Abaqus (Abaqus 6.2). My model which has the edge shared with the symmetry axis is generated and working (I use 20 noded brick elements). The wedge which is created at the symmetric axis is given as repeated...
My problem is about the modeling in 3-D when I revolve my 2-D plane about the symmetry axis. I use the *symmetric model generation command. The program create duplicate node and element by offset the numbering. The problem is along the symmetry axis. Program recognize nodes at the axis to be...
I was analysed my problem in abaqus 6.2 and now it's updated to version 6.3. When I open my .odb file, my old model has become junk. The node-element connectivity has changed for my 3-D results. Do anyone know how to solve this?
Thank you
Do anyone know the meaning of non-linear geometry (Nlgeom option in the *step command). I'm trying to do finite deformation of structure on the soil.
I was succeeded in doing the normal analysis but when I put Nlgeom option into the *step command. I got the following errors in the msg file...
I would to state my problem more clearly. I would like to do a pull-out analysis of suction caisson in clay to find the limit load; therefore, I need to do finite sliding analysis. I have tried to use surface to surface contact and apply surface friction coefficient equal to 0.6 (independent of...
