Simulation becomes more important by the day for competitive product innovation, but it comes at a cost. Can you do a more sophisticated simulation while keeping the budget under control? The answer is “yes” thanks to a new type of universal licensing and cloud compute for Abaqus, CST Studio Suite, and the other SIMULIA and 3DEXPERIENCE SIMULATION tools.
Abaqus licenses are hosted from a license server which all clients must be able to access on the network. There are a few options of license systems used to host an Abaqus license and the procedures to install or update the license are very different for each type.
Composite Analysis functionality has long been enabled by powerful solvers like Abaqus, and the foremost composites design tool is CATIA. Both solutions are industry leaders, and the advent of the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform has enabled these functionalities to be merged into a single solution for a Modeling and Simulation (MODSIM) unified workflow for all of your composites needs.
After installing Abaqus Golden, you are now ready to patch Abaqus with the latest hot fix. Dassault Systèmes continues to release updates to Abaqus throughout the year. That is what “SIMULIA Abaqus 2024.FP.CFA.####” is in the Level menu.
Abaqus introduced a groundbreaking solution to overcome the limitations inherent to the traditional contact pair approach: General Contact. This highly sophisticated method for modeling contact and interaction problems is distinct from the contact pair method. By using powerful tracking algorithms, General Contact can efficiently enforce and simulate contact conditions, ensuring accurate simulation outcomes.
Dassault Systémes' robust cloud compute environment can solve Abaqus simulation jobs on up to 192 cores. This cloud solver, housed on the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, is fully elastic, enabling unlimited computational resources to simulation analysts. Additionally, this cloud environment offers substantial advantages to simulation users regarding cost-effectiveness and productivity. In this article, we discuss how users can run simulation jobs on the cloud with the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform.
This article discusses modeling arbitrary shaped beam cross sections in Abaqus and includes a verification of the beam model comparing shell vs solid elements. When modeling and working with a slender structure, there are three options available, each more computationally efficient than the next.
Designing rotating machinery requires a thorough analysis of potential vibrational feedback that could occur in the system during operation. If proper precautions are not taken, excessive vibrational excitations in rotating systems can create catastrophic failures. In this article, see how we used 3DEXPERIENCE STRUCTURAL roles and Abaqus FEA software to perform an analysis workflow focusing on the identification of critical speeds where large vibrational excitations are most likely to occur.
The Abaqus Associative Interface is tailored to integrate with SOLIDWORKS users. It provides a direct channel to transfer geometry from SOLIDWORKS to Abaqus/CAE. With this interface, users can easily send individual components or a full assembly from SOLIDWORKS to Abaqus/CAE using a single click.
