The next in the webinar series will cover sequential and fully coupled thermal-stress analyses using Abaqus. The three modes of heat transfer, conduction, convection and radiation will be covered, along with how these are defined in Abaqus/CAE. Frequently a thermal analysis is coupled to a stress analysis in order to determine the impact of thermal […]

In this month’s webinar we will be covering residual stress and springback. We will look at their definition and implications on FEA, how to deal with springback efficiently in Abaqus and the transfer of residual stresses and deformed parts between Abaqus steps and solvers. Often the forming of metallic parts involves large quasi-static deformations and […]

Sometimes you may wish to simulate a process where various parts interact with one another. In such cases it is often impossible to rely on predefined loads and boundary conditions since the exact points of contact are dependent on the solution. Including contact in your simulation can be a more realistic way to represent loadings. […]

Problem solving and simulation within the Oil and Gas industry use approaches that are generally familiar to other more mainstream mechanical engineers, but often require the use of specific, often codified, processes and tools. This webinar will look at some of the tools that are available within Abaqus that allow an in-depth insight into the […]
