Description

Course Overall Theme  Hello Everyone, I welcome you all to the new course on Abaqus CAE in our orville academy's library.Center focus of the course is to make you familiar with static and dynamic analysis. Course Start with introduction to theoretical concepts which we need during the course, so even if you are beginner and don't know from where to start, well this course is perfect place for you. Course has been divided to into multiple sections which covers everything that you need to know to start working or execute project independently. Wherever possible, More attention was given to verifying the CAE solution with manual calculations. Various tips, tricks and industry insights are given during the course so user can align themselves with how people working in organization think or do things.Course Structure Below is the detailed outline of the various topics covered in the course.Section 1 : Theory of CAE/FEAProduct Lifecycle ManagementDegree of FreedomMethods to Solve Engineering ProblemIntuition of CAE Software's/ToolsCAE and it's DomainsSteps in FEAFEA and Interpolation FunctionTypes of Numerical MethodsTypes of ElementsLinear vs Non-Linear & Steady vs TransientTypes of Structural AnalysisImplicit vs Explicit Schemes in FEASection 2 : Introduction to ABAQUS CAEOverview and Launching ABAQUS CAEGraphical User Interface (GUI)Interacting with ModelUnderstanding Overall Procedure : Model Setup, Solution and Visualization1D Analysis Setup : Cantilever BeamTypical Procedure : 2D ElementTypical Procedure : 3D ElementRevision : Analysis Setups 1D, 2D and 3DSection 3 : Geometry CreationSketcher Options : Part-1 ,2,3Sketcher Exercise : 1Sketcher Exercise : 2Sketcher Task : 1Sketcher Task : 2Creating Datum Features : Points, Axis, Plane and SYSSection 4 : Linear Static Structural AnalysisOverviewMesh Convergence : Part-1,2Mesh Convergence : ExerciseExample : Pressure Load on U Shaped BracketTips & Tricks : Saving Display SettingsExample : Beam BracketSection 5 : File Structure and Dictating Abaqus JobsInput File.dat File.msg File.sta and Remaining FilesOutput Formats in AbaqusPerforming Multistep AnalysisSection 6 : Buckling AnalysisIntroduction to Buckling AnalysisCases of Column Buckling FailureExample Case 1 : Fixed - Free EndExample Case 2 : Pinned - Pinned EndExample Case 3 and Case 4 : Fixed - Pinned, Fixed-Fixed EndExample : Mobile Tower BucklingExample : Spring BucklingSection 7 : Non-Linear AnalysisIntroduction to Non Linear AnalysisControlling Non-Linear AnalysisConcept of Step, Increment and IterationsTypes of Geometric Non LinearitiesExample : Geometric Non-LinearityExample : Stress StiffeningTheory : Material Non-LinearityExample : Material Non -LinearitySection 8 : Modal AnalysisTypes of Dynamic AnalysisOverview of Modal Analysis and It's ImportanceGoverning Equation : Modal AnalysisExample : Understanding Rigid Body Modes Part-1,2Understanding Mechanism ModesAvoiding Resonance : Example PlateMode Participation Factor and Effective MassExample Pre-Stress Modal Analysis : Plane WingSection 9 : DampingTheory : DampingExample : Spring Dashpot DampingSection 10 : Harmonic AnalysisTheory of Harmonic AnalysisExample - 1 : Fixed Fixed Beam Part - 1Example - 1 : L Shaped BracketExample - 3 : GuitarSection 11: Explicit AnalysisImplicit vs Explicit Methods/Schemes/AnalysisConcept of Timestep : Part - 1,2
