    How do you define contact surfaces? Clevis-Pin

    Try this procedure In the Assembly Module, go to Surfaces and create two surfaces, one for the pin and the other for the Clevis. Select the area that will come in contact for each part when you define the respectie serface. Go to Interaction Properties and create a new property defining the...

    Defining Infinite Elements in Key Word Editor

    I am working on a soil problem in ABAQUS that requires definition of infinite 3D elements (CIN3D8) to define far away regions. I am working using CAE but infinite elements (not acoustic type) are not supported in CAE. Can somebody advise how to define infinite elements using the Key Word...

    [b]ABAQUS CAE - tensile behavior input for RC Slab[/b]

    Actaully what I was suggesting is use the Partition Edge option in the part module to partition the wire reinforcements each into three segments. Then in the constraints module, use the Embedded Region option to embed the reinforcement into the concrete slab, but when you select the embedded...

    [b]ABAQUS CAE - tensile behavior input for RC Slab[/b]

    Here is a thought; If you have imbedded the entire reinforcement truss part into the concrete slab part, then it will be all constrained during the load application as if it is entireley mobilized to resist the loads. In reality not the entire reinforcement rod is anchored into the concrete...

    Tie-Back Wall Model in ABAQUS

    Well of course it can be solved directly without ABAQUS. That is the point, I want to model a system for which I have a known solution before using the technique for more complicated models. My aim is to model the stresses on complicated wall profiles (not straight rectangular sections, but...

    Tie-Back Wall Model in ABAQUS

    I am working on a simple tie-back wall model to get the general set-up working before moving to a more complicated one. I have a soil body, a concrete wall and a tie-back anchor rod modeled as a beam. The anchor wire part is segmented, with one end embedded in the soil body and the other end...
