    Could I use 2D simulation to simulate cylindrical waves?

    I am current using 3D model to simulate cylindrical waves but very slow. Is there a way to do it with 2D configuration? Thanks!

    abaqus explicit large input file

    Hi, I have an very large input file which takes a long time in running "package_dp.exe" rather than solving the problem. The reason the input file is long is because the elements in the model are subjected to different body force loads. I have been looking at VDLOAD subroutine but it is still...

    how to calculate equivalent nodal force from body force?

    Hi, I wonder if there is a way to convert body force loading to equivalent nodal force loading? Thanks a lot!

    UMAT Simple linear viscoelastic example

    Hi, I am studying the UMAT manual. The shipped example for modeling viscoelastic material gives a lot of insights. But I have a question: What is relationship between the parameters for the model (mu1, E1 and E2) and the parameters to the subroutine (lambda, mu, lambda_hat, mu_hat and nu)...

    transverse isotropic and viscoelastic

    Thanks! It seems like an very interesting option. Are there examples about how to use embedded elements to model anisotropy + viscoelasticity? Thanks

    transverse isotropic and viscoelastic

    Hi, After reading abaqus manual, it seems that the time constants are the same for both directions of transverse isotropic materials. Is it true? Is there a way to make time constants independent for the two orthogonal directions? Thanks!

    Confusion about acoustic infinite element section

    Hi, I am trying to setup a 2D plannar model with acoustic infinite elements along the boundaries. From the help document, it seems like acoustic infinite elements can be created in CAE without manually edit input file (am I right?). Here is the steps I have tried: 1. create a 2D plannar...

    Acoustic propagation simulation error

    Hi, I am trying to simulate the wave propagation process on a elastic material, which is surrounded by water. I am having the following error message when I try to run: AN ACOUSTIC MEDIUM IS DEFINED FOR ELEMENT 50 INSTANCE WATER-1. ONLY ACOUSTIC ELEMENTS MAY HAVE THIS MATERIAL PROPERTY. I...
