I have two questions concerning strain in Abaqus:
1. In Abaqus CAE, the user can only specify as boundary conditions the applied displacement and time. So how does Abaqus calculate the applied strain and strain increment, especially for non-linear problems where the relation between displacement...
This question has been in my mind for a long time: as we know, finite element method is a numerical technique for solving partial differential equations. So, as a finite element software, what underlying partial differential equations does Abaqus solve?
Hi all,
How to plot the overall stress strain curve for multiple elements? For example, I'd like to simulate the deformation of a material. The mesh consists of 1000 elements. When the calculation completes, I want to extract the overall stress-strain curve for the whole model (1000 elements)...
Hi all,
If there is grain that is 1000 nm in length and 10 nm in height, and in Abaqus I use a C3D8R element with 100:1 aspect ratio to simulate the grain. Now, if there is another grain that is 2000 nm in length and 20 nm in height, and this time in Abaqus I make the element twice as long and...
