Abaqus Standard Initiation

Overall objectives
This course focuses on the acknowledged core features of Abaqus Standard: modeling non-linearities.
Contact, material, and geometry non-linearities will be presented. Following this training will teach
many techniques and guidelines for solving challenging all types of contact problems and obtaining a
converged solution. Abaqus Material behaviour library will also be presented.
Day 1

- Large displacements / strains
- Contact
- Material behaviour
Modeling contact methods
- General contact and contact pairs

- Friction
- Small / Large sliding
- Clearance, Overclosures
- Overconstraints, rigid body motions

Day 2

Geometry non-Linearity
- When to take it into account
Abaqus Resolution Technique
- Abaqus algorithms
- Steps / Increments / Iterations
