Join the “Introduction to Non-Linear Analysis Workshop” on the 20th of May from 13:00 - 17:00 CET, this free ONLINE event is suitable for anyone* who has some experience of simulation and FEA, but would like to look at extending the scope of the work they do. This workshop is an ideal way to understand what advanced simulation and SIMULIA Abaqus can offer, and find out how easy it actually is to perform a real world non-linear analysis.

Join the "Introduction to Advanced Contact Analysis” on the 25th of March from 13:00 - 17:00 CET. This free ONLINE event is suitable for anyone* dealing with complex contact conditions, who has beginner or advanced experience in simulation and FEA, but would like to look at extending the scope of the work they do. This workshop is an ideal way to understand what advanced simulation with robust contact solver can offer and find out how easy it is to perform a real-world non-linear analysis.

While doing support we get all kinds of questions. I want to share one with you in this blog, because it was insightful for me, and I hope it will be insightful for others as well.

This blog is on installing the Intel oneAPI Fortran compiler for use with Abaqus. It is an update of my previous blog, where some relevant information was only available in the comment section. This blog is intended to be used as a reference instead of the old blog.

Online Webinar Training: Co-Simulation | 26th November 2021 @ 11:30 - 12:30 CET

About the Webinar 

There are countless scenarios which consist of an interaction between different physical domains, be it a liquid sloshing inside a tanker truck, or a controller circuit governing the mechanics of a robot. This type of scenario cannot always be analyzed by a single simulation software, thus there is a need to use multiple software in conjunction with each other. The co-simulation technique allows Abaqus to exchange solution data continually with other software, which lets us accurately capture scenarios where multiple domains interact.

The Topics

Scripting in Abaqus is a powerful way to reduce working hours and ensure a consistent method is used. Previously, we have given an example of postprocessing and tips on getting started. Now I want to discuss what kinds of problems are easy or more challenging to script by using examples. Hopefully this will make it easier to find a suitable problem and get started scripting.

Online Webinar Training: Element Selection | 29th October 2021 @ 11:30 - 12:30 CET

About the Webinar 

Elements are the basic building blocks in FE modelling of any geometries and structures. It is very important for any FE Analyst to understand the characteristics of these elements, to use them in the proper manner, based on the specific application. It is also necessary to achieve the desired level of accuracy for the simulated problem.

In Abaqus we have a wide range of elements, more than 500 different types! Some of these elements are unique to Abaqus/Standard and some to Abaqus/Explicit, but there are also elements which are common to both. In this webinar, a brief overview of elements, their characteristics and the challenges encountered in modelling some of these elements are considered. The focus of this webinar is to help FE Analysts to decide when to use specific element types and to counter the challenges that occur while modelling with these elements in Abaqus.
