    Contact between analytical rigid surface and s4r elements

    Dear All, I am trying tp simulate a rubber tube inside an inside a steel pipe. the rubber tube has been defined using S4R elements and the steel pipe has been defined using analytical rigid surface. However , i am gettng overclosure error for the contact defination. here is what all I tried...

    Axisymmetric element and non symmetric loading

    Dear All , I want to a make an axi symmetric model. ( No not an tyre) (I want to model thw dust cover that we have on suspensions) FOr this I am thinking of using axisymmetric elements such as CGAX4R. Now I will have unaxial loading later. So I would like to have your advice if I should go...

    Abaqus convergence issue with *Controls

    maybe you start with a even smaller time increment and have decrease the minimum increment say 1e-10, 1.0, 1.00E-20, , or 1e-20, 1.0, 1.00e-25, , it worked once for me with a very small loading size.

    Mode before and after augmentation of residual vectors

    Dear Blas, Thank you for answering my question. SO if my understanding is correct then considering residual vectors means cosidering static flexiblity. Can you please explain what is meant by truncated modes and static flexiblity ? Also if I use NxNastran versions before 9.0 (ie Version...

    Modelling contact using BSURFS

    I am trying to run a SOL103 in NxNastran v 8.1. In my model there is are Surface cards (BSURFS) I have just mentioned BSURFS. Now SOL103 is running error free but the parts on which i defined surfaces are not acting like surfaces. I mean in the modal shapes i see them bend independent of...

    USER FATAL MESSAGE 9137

    Dear Blas, If its not too much for you then can you please do me a favour. Can you please suggest which SOL will be best for obtaining both the natural modes and stress values with a rotating force. I I tried reading the NASTRAN manual but i was unable to decide the best one. thanks a lot...

    USER FATAL MESSAGE 9137

    Dear Blas, I would like to repeat if i understood clearly. Kindly correct me if i am wrong. 1. Applying Rotating force (RFORCE) will not cause any change in the natural modes of the crankshaft. 2. When we run SOL103 no stresses will be calculated. (Since I will use the op2 generated for...

    Dear Mr Blas, Thank you for the response. I checked your blog just now, but unfortunately the posts are in a different language. however your reply here was very helpful. My doubts are still not cleared. :( I am simulating a crankshaft to which I want to propose some desigbn changes. To...

    Dear Blas, i have run the modal SOL103 analysis. Is there anything specific that i should see in it? In this model which i am simulating, I am also applying an force. So , i wanted to see the stresses developed. [highlight #FCE94F]is there a way that we can see stresses in result from a...

    SOL103, STRESS output vs SOL101

    Dear All, Is am running an SOL103 and have requested STRESS(PLOT)=ALL. When i view this in Hyperviews it shows failed to attch result. A friend said that SOL103 does not support stress output. My questions are. 1 Does SOL103 not supposrt stress output only but calculates stresses? (I...

    converting contacts in abaqus to nastran

    Dear All, I am trying to convert a few abaqus files having contacts to Nastran files. I am using medina for this conversion. The contacts are coming as BSURFS element. Now i have a few questions. 1. Is this the right conversion ? is contacts and BSURFS are they equivalent 2. what is the...
