Substructures and Submodeling with Abaqus
Providing effective techniques that allow the analyst to study problems that are too large to simulate with a conventional modeling approach.
Duration:
2 days
Course objective:
The size and complexity of designs that are analyzed and tested with Abaqus continues to grow. Substructures and submodeling are two effective techniques that allow the analyst to study problems that are too large to simulate with a conventional modeling approach. Substructures are useful to break a large problem into several smaller components.
The substructure lectures teach users how to:
- Maximize CPU savings when using substructures
- Build preloads into substructures
- Plot results within substructures
- Use substructures in dynamic simulations
- Translate, rotate and reflect substructures when using multiple copies in a problem
- Use substructures when the problem contains nonlinearities, such as contact
- Using co-simulation techniques to include substructures in Abaqus/Explicit
The submodeling lectures cover the following topics:
- When submodeling can be useful
- Mesh design for the submodel analysis
- Shell-to-shell and shell-to-solid submodeling
- Solid-to-solid submodeling
- Submodeling in nonstructural problems
- The proper design of a coarse, global analysis that can “drive” the submodel analysis
