In Abaqus/Explicit , you can apply a uniform damping ratio across a specific frequency range to improve result stability. 🚀 Pro Tip: Performance Boost
The 2021 release cycle introduced several tools to streamline complex workflows:
Now supported in both Standard and Explicit solvers for modeling ductile metal fracture. DS SIMULIA Suite 2021 HF4
This damage initiation model for fiber-reinforced composites is available in Abaqus/Standard for more realistic failure predictions.
A new utility in Abaqus/CAE lets you strip unnecessary data from Output Database ( .odb ) files, which is critical for managing storage when dealing with massive simulation results. Advanced Physics Capabilities In Abaqus/Explicit , you can apply a uniform
In Abaqus/Standard , you can now run multiple nonlinear load cases within a single job . This minimizes the number of output files and reduces overall run time compared to managing separate simulations.
If you'd like to dive deeper into one of these, let me know: Setting up for your model. Automating workflows using Isight . Configuring fe-safe for specific fatigue algorithms. What's New in Abaqus R2021x - 3DS Blog - Dassault Systèmes A new utility in Abaqus/CAE lets you strip
A standout feature in (specifically within Abaqus 2021) is the Cyclic Symmetry analysis in Abaqus/Explicit . This addition allows you to model just a single representative sector of a circular structure, significantly reducing computational time and memory requirements for high-speed dynamic simulations like turbine blade impacts. Key Enhancements in the 2021 Suite
