Cyclic symmetry in Abaqus/Explicit for composite pipe

[AleTre]

Hi everyone,

I have a composite pipe, layup can be either symmetric or not.
I would like to apply cyclic symmetry to reduce the size of the model. Cyclic symmetry is available in Abaqus/Standard but not in Explicit and I was wondering whether there is a way of applying cyclic symmetry in Explicit.
I have successfully analysed a 1degree model of the same pipe in Abaqus/Standard using cyclic symmetry and I now would like to do the same in Explicit.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
