Optimization is a process of finding the best solution to a problem within a set of constraints. It involves maximizing or minimizing an objective function while satisfying a set of constraints. Optimization in Abaqus involves the use of advanced algorithms and techniques to improve the design of structures and systems. Abaqus provides a range of optimization tools, including topology optimization, size optimization, and shape optimization. These tools help in improving the performance of structures by reducing their weight, increasing their stiffness, and minimizing their stress levels. In this package, all types of optimization, such as Topology, will be discussed; after each lesson, there will be workshops to help you to understand optimization with practical examples.
Script to transfer load from CFD to structural model in Abaqus
FEA offers various loading types, such as force, pressure, and temperature, which can be applied to different parts of an object, such as points, surfaces, edges, nodes, and elements. Therefore, applying accurate loading conditions on these features is necessary for reliable simulation results and the safe design of structures. Sometimes, the loading conditions are obtained by another analysis, such as CFD, and need to be transferred and applied to the structural model for the structural analysis; during this transfer, the loads might not be appropriately applied to the model, especially when the loads are complicated like the pressure profile of a space rocket. So in this package, a Python script is presented to solve this issue and transfer the loads properly to the structural model.
Bolts and joints play a vital role in the stability and structural integrity of various engineering structures, including buildings, bridges, and machines. Bolts are used to fasten or connect different components together, providing a means of transferring loads and ensuring the continuity of load paths. Joints connect structural elements, allowing them to move and deform while maintaining their overall stability. Proper design and selection of bolts and joints are crucial to ensuring the safety and durability of the structure. Factors such as the type of load, the materials used, and the environmental conditions must be considered when selecting bolts and joints. Failure to properly design and install bolts and joints can result in catastrophic failure of the structure. In this package, you will learn how to model bolts and joints, simulating the failure of connections and other things with practical examples.
Car part industrial simulation
Car industrial parts are complex and critical components that play a vital role in the operation of a car. Two such parts are the exhaust manifold and the internal combustion engine (IC engine). The exhaust manifold directs hot exhaust gases from the engine's cylinders into the exhaust system and is typically made of cast iron or stainless steel. The IC engine converts fuel into mechanical energy by burning fuel in a controlled explosion within the engine cylinder. High temperatures and pressures must be considered in the design, and the components must be made of durable materials that can withstand the stresses of constant combustion. Therefore, it is important to know how these parts respond under different loading conditions to have the best design possible. In this package, there are two workshops to help you with this job: Heat transfer analysis in an exhaust manifold and Thermomechanical analysis of an exhaust manifold.
Rock simulation is essential for evaluating the behaviour of rock masses under various loading conditions, such as earthquakes, landslides, and blasting. It enables engineers and geologists to assess the stability and integrity of rock structures, predicts potential failure modes, and develop effective mitigation strategies. Rock simulation is crucial in the design and planning of mining operations, tunnels, and underground constructions to ensure the safety and longevity of the structures. It also plays a vital role in assessing the seismic hazard of an area and evaluating the potential impact of earthquakes on the built environment. In this package, you will learn how to do an impact simulation on a granite stone using the JH-2 model; also an explosion simulation inside a rock for excavation purposes. You can learn more detail in the description of the workshops.
Piezoelectric simulation in Abaqus
Piezoelectric materials are unique materials that generate an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress, such as pressure or vibration. They are used in a wide range of applications, including sensors, actuators, and energy harvesting devices. The piezoelectric analysis is the process of studying the mechanical and electrical behavior of piezoelectric materials under various loading conditions. It involves modeling and simulating the response of piezoelectric materials to external stimuli, such as electrical potential or mechanical stress. The importance of piezoelectric analysis lies in its ability to evaluate the performance and optimize the design of piezoelectric devices, which are becoming increasingly important in various industries, including medical, automotive, aerospace, and energy. Piezoelectric analysis can help improve the efficiency, accuracy, and durability of piezoelectric devices, leading to advancements in technology and innovation. In this package you will learn how to model piezoelectric materials in Abaqus.
The aim of fire analysis is to evaluate the performance of structures in real fire scenarios and to develop strategies to improve their fire resistance and safety. Fire analysis is commonly used in the design and evaluation of buildings, bridges, and other structures. Fire analysis is the process of simulating the behavior of structures under fire conditions. Fire analysis typically involves two main steps: (i) heat transfer analysis to estimate the propagation of heat in the structure and (ii) structural analysis taking into account the effects of heat and mechanical loads. In this package, you will learn how to do a fire simulation on some structures and parts like concrete beams. You can find more details about how to do this simulation in the description of the workshops.
A tunnel is an underground or underwater passage for transportation, utility lines, or water pipelines. Tunnels are critical infrastructure, and their safety and reliability are essential for ensuring public safety and the smooth functioning of society. Tunnel simulation involves using computer models to predict the behaviour of tunnels under different types of loading conditions, such as earthquakes, floods, or explosions. These simulations can help engineers and policymakers assess the safety and reliability of tunnels, identify potential failure modes, and develop strategies to mitigate risks. By using advanced simulation techniques, engineers can better understand the complex behavior of tunnels and design more effective and durable structures. Tunnel simulation is an essential tool for ensuring the safety and resilience of tunnels and the infrastructure they support. Some workshops are presented in this package to teach you how to simulate and analyze tunnels in Abaqus; two of these workshops are Damage analysis of an underground box tunnel subjected to surface explosion and Tunnel dynamic analysis subjected to internal blast loading using CEL method.
Eulerian Abaqus and CEL modeling
The Eulerian method is a numerical technique used to analyze fluid mechanics problems. In this approach, the fluid is treated as a fixed grid, where the nodes remain stationary while the fluid flows through them. The Eulerian Abaqus method can be used to analyze fluid-structure interactions, such as fluid impact on structures or the behavior of fluids in containers. To use the Eulerian method in Abaqus, the desired geometry must first be meshed using Eulerian elements. The material behavior of the fluid is then defined using appropriate equations of state. Finally, the boundary conditions and loading are applied, and the system is solved using the appropriate numerical method, such as the finite element method. This package will teach you how to use this method and various practical examples. Also, this package covers several practical examples in Abaqus CEL method.
Cold spray & Shot peening simulation in Abaqus
Cold spray is a process used to deposit materials onto a substrate by accelerating fine powder particles to high velocities using compressed gas. Upon impact with the substrate, the particles undergo rapid plastic deformation, disrupting surface oxide films and promoting bonding between metal surfaces. Unlike thermal spray processes, cold spray avoids thermal degradation and partial oxidation of the coating material, resulting in coatings with low porosity and oxygen content. The process is highly efficient, with deposition efficiencies often exceeding 90%. Shot peening is a metal treatment process that involves bombarding a surface with small, round metallic (usually steel), ceramic, or glass beads at high velocity. This process creates small indentations on the surface, which in turn introduces compressive residual stress into the material. These two processes are different and use for separate purposes but their simulations are the same.
Cold spray is particularly important in applications where thermal degradation or oxidation of the coating material is a concern or where the coating is required to be thick and free from defects. In this package, you will learn how to simulate this process with different methods, such as ALE and SPH, with different materials. For example, Cold spray simulation of steel particles impacts on the Inconel target using ALE method.
A dam is a large concrete or earthen barrier built across a river or other waterway to create a reservoir for storing water. Dams are critical infrastructure for providing water for irrigation, drinking, and hydroelectric power generation. However, they are also susceptible to damage from natural disasters and human-made threats, such as earthquakes, landslides, and terrorist attacks. Abaqus can predict the behavior of dams under different loading conditions, including earthquakes, floods, and explosions. It also can model the interaction between the dam, water, and soil, making it a comprehensive and powerful tool for dam engineering. In this package, you will learn how to model dams in different conditions, such as dam simulation subjected to earthquakes in interaction with water and soil and dam simulation subjected to an underwater explosion.
An explosion is a rapid and violent release of energy, usually accompanied by a loud noise, heat, and pressure waves. Explosions can be caused by a variety of factors such as chemical reactions, combustion, nuclear reactions, or mechanical failure. Explosions can cause severe damage to buildings, infrastructure, and human life. To minimize the impact of such incidents, accurate and reliable simulation of explosions is crucial. Explosion simulation involves modeling the complex interactions of blast waves, shock waves, and debris with the surrounding environment. By simulating explosions, engineers and scientists can identify potential risks and develop effective safety measures. In this package, you will learn how to model explosions in different situations with practical examples, such as Air blast explosion simulation inside an RC room and Subsurface explosion simulation on buried steel pipelines.
