Course Dates

This course is presented in two lecture sessions from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. CT; lectures and demos will be presented by the instructor during this time.  There is a one-hour break in the middle of each lecture session (12:30 - 1:30 p.m. CT). The workshop sessions are conducted offline with technical support provided by SIMULIA Central via email and telephone from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. CT.

Objective

The size and complexity of designs that are analyzed and tested with Abaqus continues to grow. Substructuring allows you to break large problems into several smaller components.

In this seminar you will learn how to:

• Maximize CPU savings when using substructures
• Translate, rotate, and reflect substructures when using multiple copies
• Build preloads into substructures
• Plot results within substructures
• Use substructures in dynamic simulations
• Use substructures when the problem contains nonlinearities, such as contact
• Use co-simulation techniques to include substructures in Abaqus/Explicit
  
  

Who Should Attend

This course is recommended for engineers with experience using Abaqus.
