    Membrane wrinkling simulation in ABAQUS

    Hello all, I've been trying to perform an FEA simulation of a membrane wrinkling in tension in ABAQUS 6.7. It's a 100 mm x 100 mm square Kapton (.013 mm thick, 2600 MPa secant modulus, v = .34) membrane meshed with S4R5 elements with an element size of about 1.33 mm. It's in the xy-plane, and...

    Simple beam bending FEM vs. theory comparison error

    I am having some trouble getting accurate values for max. stress and max. deflection for an FEM model of a simply supported I-beam in bending. I am using I-DEAS 12 NX to solve the model. I'm pretty new to finite element analysis as a whole, but I know that getting any more than 10% error...
