Abaqus/Standard Analysis
Abaqus/Standard offers complete flexibility in making the distinction between static and dynamic response; the same analysis can contain several static and dynamic phases. Thus, a static preload might be applied, and then the linear or nonlinear dynamic response computed (as in the case of vibrations of a component of a rotating machine or the response of a flexible offshore system that is initially moved to an equilibrium position subject to buoyancy and steady current loads and then is excited by wave loading). Similarly, the static solution can be sought after a dynamic event (by following a dynamic analysis step with a step of static loading). In addition to static and dynamic stress analysis, Abaqus/Standard offers the following analysis types:
-
Heat Transfer and Thermal-Stress Analysis
-
Electromagnetic Analysis
-
Coupled Pore Fluid Flow and Stress Analysis
