Why shape function is kept orthogonal to residue in Galerkin method?
I have a question regarding the shape functions. Why the shape function is kept orthogonal to residue in Galerkin method? Looking forward to hearing from you all.

Creep strain vs time graph as input in abaqus
I have a creep strain vs
time graph. How can that be used as input for creep? In defining creep,
abaqus asks for power law multiplier, eq stress order and time order?
how can those be found from creep strain vs time graph?

What are the regular iteration steps of cohesive model based FEM for crack problems
Hi,
I'm now start to learn cohesive zone model based FEM for crack problems. According the a regular coehsize model (bilinear for example), the relative displacement and the cohesive stress are both unknwon, so iteration is required. My question is that what are the regular iteration steps?
Thanks.
fatigue analysis with FEM
Dear all
I want to model 300000 cycles of loading with maximum and minimum value for force as a fatigue loading.I want to model this problem in abaqus and I have several idea for it but not sure about them.would you help me what to do?
many thanks
Doing Topology Optimization Explicitly and Geometrically - A New Moving Morphable Components Based Framework
Structural topology optimization, which aims at placing available material within a prescribed design domain appropriately in order to achieve optimized structural performances, has received considerable research attention since the pioneering work of Bendsoe and Kikuchi. Many approaches have been proposed for structural topology optimization and it now has been extended to a wide range of physical disciplines such as acoustics, electromagnetics and optics.

Running a Matlab job in batch mode on a research server
Hi, all,
I was trying to run a Matlab m file to do some post precessing in my optimization loops. I need to run it as a batch mode without opening either Matlat interface or command window. I was trying multiple ways and it doesn't work. Any experience on this, PLEASE let me know!
So, my question simply as "I need to run obj.m and get design.txt". I've already used fopen and fprintf to write output txt file. I need to know how to run this obj.m file! Thanks.
Best Regards,
Aaron
Output getting stuck
Hello Abaqus members,
I am doing an explicit simulation of a simple fork and fiber system. The parts have a node to node connectivity. The fork is subjected to a sinusoidal load, and I am interested in the displacement at the tip of fiber.
