Using Additional Techniques to Create and Analyze a Model in
Abaqus/CAE
Creating and Analyzing a Simple Model in Abaqus/CAE
explains how to create and analyze a very simple model composed of only one
part. In this advanced tutorial for the experienced
Abaqus
user you will create and analyze a more complex model. The model is more
complex on two levels:
It consists of three different parts rather than just one. This
tutorial illustrates how you position instances of these parts to create the
assembly and how you define contact between surfaces of the assembly.
It includes parts that you will draw using advanced sketching
techniques. You will learn how sketches, datum geometry, and partitions combine
to define the features that make up individual parts. You will also learn how
you can modify a part by editing a feature and how modified parts are
regenerated.
As in
Creating and Analyzing a Simple Model in Abaqus/CAE,
you will apply section properties, loads, and boundary conditions to the model;
you will also mesh the model, configure the analysis, and run the analysis job.
At the end of the tutorial you will view your analysis results. The entire
tutorial takes approximately three hours to complete.
