Join us for this FREE one-hour eSeminar. Register below for the live seminar in your time zone.

Contact interactions between different parts play a key role when simulating bolted assemblies, manufacturing processes, dynamic impact events, and various other systems. It’s essential to capture these interactions to solve many engineering problems. SIMULIA has developed state-of-the-art contact modeling capabilities in Abaqus. This eSeminar will highlight some of the key techniques.

Attend this seminar to learn the latest strategies for solving difficult contact problems with Abaqus. Topics include:

Advantages of the general contact capability
How to obtain accurate contact pressures
Tips for improving convergence
Use of the implicit dynamics procedure to improve robustness
How to properly represent physical details associated with contact
