Class Structure

Upon completion of this course you will be able to:

  • Use the explicit dynamics method effectively, including the application of general contact, mass scaling, and adaptive remeshing
  • Use Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/Standard together to solve difficult problems
  • Model high-strain-rate deformation and failure
  • Filter output

 

The course includes the following topics:

  • The explicit dynamics method
  • General contact
  • Adaptive meshing
  • Automatic mass scaling for impact problems
  • Automatic mass scaling for quasi-static problems
  • Using both Abaqus/Explicit and Abaqus/Standard to solve difficult problems like results transfer and co-simulation
  • Modeling high-strain-rate deformation and failure
  • Output filtering
  • Managing large models
