    ¾ Summary
    ABAQUS Scope
    This world is non-linear.
    9Perform meaningful linear and nonlinear
    analysis.
    9Typical cases:
    o Large motion of an elastic-plastic pipe hitting a rigid wall;
    o Inelastic buckling collapse of a thin-walled elbow
    o Explosive loading of an elastic, viscoplastic thin ring
    o Consolidation under a footing
    o Buckling of a composite shell with a hole
    o Deep drawing of a metal sheet
    o ……

    Workout Example

    100 cube with a 50 radius 1/8 ball

    How to draw this in AutoCAD or SolidWorks?


    We draw with ABAQUS/CAE
    Sketch Part I
    Sketch Part I --- cont’d

    Adjust
    length
    Sketch Part I --- cont’d
    Sketch Part I --- cont’d

    Need: Extrude from the Top


    Select Plane for Part II
    Sketch Part II
    Sketch Part II --- cont’d
    Part II for Extrude
    Finished Part

    Easy !!!
    Interaction --- Parts Relations
    Interaction is to tell ABAQUS about how the parts and parts
    interact and self-interact.
    Workout Example
    In contact, many times it is hard to choose the contact plane from the
    assembled part. Î Define the surfaces in the assembly by showing
    one part at a time.

    Part

    Assembled with two parts

    Want these two parts tied together by two planes in the middle.
    Define Surface
    Define Surface --- cont’d
    Define Surface --- cont’d
    Define Surface --- cont’d
    Define Interactions

    Define Interactions --- cont’d
    Select Master and Slave planes
    Define Interactions --- cont’d
    Define Interactions --- cont’d
    Define Interactions --- Summary

    ¾ Since ABAQUS only checks the nodes of the


    slave planes, we selected the planes with large
    deformation as slave planes.
    ¾ From material point of view, we usually choose
    soft material (finer meshing) as slave planes
    (regions).
    ¾ Same material does not matter.
    An Example
    Same material different meshing

    Displacement contour
    von-Mises stress contour
    Meshing --- Partition to Form Simple Part

    How Simple is called Simple?


    Color is Green. Color Orange --- Too Complex.
    Meshing Steps
    Try to turn everything into green by cutting parts (virtually because
    they are still connected and cutting is just for meshing).

    Using
    these
    tools
    Meshed Part
    Summary
    ¾ ABAQUS is user-friendly and easy.
    ¾ ABAQUS HOWTO: learn two examples in
    Appendixes B and C of book “Getting
    Started with ABAQUS”.
    ¾ Hope all of us start to rock-and-roll with
    ABAQUS.
