It's right, it was missspelled here. But either way, *NODE FILE does not work with loadcase steps since it is not allowed with this kind of step definitions. therefore, unfortunately i can not use it. so i still have got the problem.

Nobody here, who is expert in this this topic?

Hello everyone, I got the following issue with Abaqus: I have got a Static Linear Pertubation Step with a lot of loadcases and a quite big model. I need to determine the displacement of a lot of nodes for each loadcase. This should be as fast as possbile and as robust as possible, since I have...

Hello Everyone! I would like to conduct an acoustic analysis of the noise radiation of a hollow box, which is excited from within by a transient dynamic force on shaft. The shaft is carried by the box. I am interested in the information, which frequencies are amplified or damped by the radiation...

can't do that...companies secret but do you have some suggestions?

No, unfortunately the surfaces have not been explicitly named. If I had done so, it would be quite nice to do. I agree with that. It seems as if Simulia does not give to the user all the possibilities that are available with Python here (at least in the documentation) and that are implemented...

additional remark: I guess there must a possibilty to get to it, because the GUI can do it without having neither the input file nor the cae file. I guess there could be some workaround way by interpreting the defintions that created the internal node sets, e.g. contact/interaction. But I don't...

Hello! I would like to have access to an internal node set in Abaqus Viewer with the Abaqus script language. Does anyone know to do it?

Ok...I found it. You have to highlight the geometry synthesis and the "initial geometry" command can be found than on the upper right menu. It works! Thank you very much!

Where do I find the command or tool that makes the initial geometry in the FE-modeler? thx

Hello everyone! I want to use a mesh in the Ansys Workbench Simulation Suite in order to apply contacts and restraints and so on. But I don't have any geometry file because the mesh is directly generated by another program. So does anybody know how to get a mesh directly into the simulation...

Hello everybody! I have got a 3d-orphan imported that I want to transfer into a 3d-geometry part. I know that there is the possibilty to do it for 2d orphan meshes by using "Part2DGeomFrom2DMesh". Is there any possiblity to do it for 3d meshes, too? thx in advance

Hello Everyone! I want to connect two nodes by a structural nonlinear stiffness component. That takes into account "cross-coupling". (That means non-linear off-diagonal stiffness if you want to see it as a stiffness matrix) For instance if a Ux occurs I want also a moment response about another...

Does anybody know if and how it is possible to get from a force/displacement test data with the material curve fitting to a nonlinear material model. I just see the possiblity to input stresses and strains. If have got the force/displacement test data for a ring that is fixed outside and loaded...

Refering also to thread569-89306 I want to model two rings made of usual isotropic material (such as steel or something compareable) with a ring between them, that should have orthropic material properties. As you see this model is geometrically axisymmetric. But from the scratch the material...
