    Importing an Orphan Mesh with a Stress Field

    For some reason, I am recieving these errors when I try to run a simulation after I import the orphan mesh. ------------------ This option is not supported for element loop parallelization. If you have specified element loop parallelization, it will be turned off for this analysis...

    Importing an Orphan Mesh with a Stress Field

    Hi MechIrl, I cannot thank you enough. You have been a great Help. So i have successfully imported the predefined field. However, I am now receiving errors based on my surface ties. It doesnt like the surface tie selections I have given it...this seems odd. I was wondering if you have any input...

    Importing an Orphan Mesh with a Stress Field

    Hello, Thanks for responding, I really appreciate the feedback. I am still running into the same problems with your method. However, I am able to import the deformed mesh into my new assembly. But I have the following problems. 1) I tried importing the INP file as you had said...But this does...

    Importing an Orphan Mesh with a Stress Field

    Ok, So the reason I am trying to do this procedure is because I am running an extension test, which is to be followed by a rotation. Imagine a cylinder that is stretched to a solid body. then, that solid body rotates. But when the solid body rotates, the cylinder needs to rotate with the solid...

    Importing an Orphan Mesh with a Stress Field

    So I have been reading the manual. I am wondering if what I want to do is impossible. I have 4 parts that I have performed a displacement to, creating a stress field in the mesh of these parts. I would like to import these 4 parts into a new assembly, with the stress fields attached. But...

    Importing an Orphan Mesh with a Stress Field

    OK, I understand what you are saying. I am running into a problem when I type the Job Name of the previous analysis job, it says it cannot find the .res file. I am wondering what this means. I have tried to find a .red file in my working directory, as well as my temp folder, and have nothing...

    Importing an Orphan Mesh with a Stress Field

    Hello All, I have a successful simulation with a structure which has undergone a stretch. I would like to import that part into a new model with the stress and strain still incorporated into the part, but in a new model. I am able to import the orphan mesh, but I am trying to apply a...

    Marlow Model

    Dear InvariantL, Thanks so much. I had actually just talked with a colleague and this was exactly what he had said. My problem was that I was using linear tets instead of quadratic (second order). Now my models run beautifully. I will most likely need to account for contact in the future, so I...

    Marlow Model

    Hello, I have hyperelastic test data that has fit perfectly with a Marlow Model in abaqus. But for some reason when I use a Tet mesh my simulations will not converge. However, when I mesh the structure with a HEX mesh, it converges when I use "advanced hourglass control". Is there any way I can...

    Hexahedral meshing help needed

    Hello Corus, Thank you very much for the response. I am wondering if you could let me know which files you are talking about when you say "2 of the parts will hex mesh". I only have 2 parts. But my attachment provides both .IGES and .SAT for both parts. I am excited about the fact that you have...

    Hexahedral meshing help needed

    Hello All, So I am using ABAQUS. I have some irregular geometry structures, with hyperelastic material properties fitted to a marlow model, using ABAQUS' material evaluation package. I am trying to mesh these irregular geometries with a hexahedral mesh. This is because when I use a tet mesh...
