This months webinar will present advanced contact modelling methods and look at the related convergence issues. It will be held on Friday 30th June.
Contact is the most common source of nonlinearities and one of the major concerns for any finite element analyst. Sudden contact changes lead to abrupt increases or reduction of the stiffness matrix of the system resulting in convergence issues, especially if an implicit solver is used. Moreover, correctly handling complex contact conditions may extremely reduce the computational costs of a finite element analysis.
In this webinar, we will look at the main convergence issues related to contact modelling such as initial rigid body motions, dynamic instabilities and overclosures due to inadequate geometries.
For each topic, the main modelling strategies available in Abaqus will be presented. Example cases and demonstration of use will be provided throughout the webinar.
The Advanced Contact with Abaqus is a paid online training for existing customers. Other companies can sign up and receive a free webinar once. The costs for 10 Online Webinar Training Sessions during the year are EUR 1.175,00.
The link for the online event will be sent just one week before the actual date so if you register, please note it in your agenda already.
