    Underlying element X instance Y can only have spos or sneg as a face identifier - heat transfer

    Dear all, I have created a part consisting of 2 perpendicular shell surfaces. I partitioned the part using datum plane (through both cells). I want to use the part in a heat transfer analysis. When submitting the job I get the error Underlying element X instance Y can only have spos or sneg...

    Section force and rebar strain

    Dear all, I am modeling a beam element to check the SF obtained for different position of the reference line. First I have the reference line of the CS in the centroid. If I apply a longitudinal force, I obtain SF1 egual to the force corresponding to yield stress. If I define the reference line...

    Forces in connectors

    Dear all, I have modeled 3 elements which intersect in one point. the link between them is a connector (join- translation DOF). How can I obtain the section force of an element which belongs to the connection? When I try to use probe values it says "no value". Thank you in advance,

    NT vs TEMP

    Hello all, I have some problems understanding the meaning of the two notions NT and TEMP. I am analysing a linear element (wire) for which I defined a gradient. If I want to check the results the two variables, NT and TEMP for the same node, are quite different. Can anyone enlighten me...

    Thermal analysis of composite slab

    Dear All, I am trying to model a fiber reinforced concrete slab on steel beams. I have applied the load in the first step and applied thermal conditions (convection and radiation) in the second step. The analysis reached 400seconds (tops) ( I was expecting 7000s). I have modeled the structure...

    Temperature load, beam element

    Hi I want to add a temperature on one face of a BEAM24 element. Does anyone know how to do that? What do the following mean: STLOC starting location N ____ VAL1 Temperature at location N ____ VAL2 Temperature at location N+1 _____ Val3 Temperature at location N+2 _____ VAL4...

    Thermal analysis, structural analysis

    Hello Can anyone help me to make a thermal analysis for a cross section and afterward make a structural analysis of a beam, taking into consideration the temperature distribution from the thermal analysis? Thank you Bothul

    Beam thermal mechanical analysis

    Hello Does anyone know how to obtain a beam (wire) with a linear distribution of temperature over the cross-section and analyze it statically? Thank you Bothul

    Sequentially Coupled thermal-stress analysis

    Hello, I am new in thermal analysis. Regarding the Sequentially Coupled thermal-stress analysis, I would like to find out if there is a possibility to run a thermal analysis for a planar section which has 2 different temperatures acting on opposite sides, and afterward to run a static model...

    cable modelling

    Hello, I would like to create a model in Abaqus. I am a begginer. Are there any tutorials or documentation regarding cable structures (like a suspended crossing)in Abaqus? Is it better to use wire or solid with tension rigidity? Thanks

    dynamic wind analysis

    Hello, I am trying to analyse a cable structure. They are affected very much by the wind. I would like to simulate a dynamic wind load. If anyone has documentation about wind action and method of introducing dynamic wind load in FEM software, i would appreciate it.Thanks in advance!

    Target Force definition

    Hello everybody, I have made a model (in SAP2k)for a suspension crossing for a pipeline. The towers are modelled with frame elements as well as the pipe. All the other elements are cable elements. I have watched the W&L clips and apllied a target-force in several cases: 1. target force on the...
