We may also be interested in how a model moves as a function of time or dynamic modeling. Reason: Stresses and displacements can be greater in a dynamic model than a static model. The Beam Example: Let’s look at a 3D beam that has dimensions of 1m length, 0.1 m height, and 0.2 m width. Material Properties We used standard 2014-T6 aluminum alloy properties which are: Density: 174 lbm/ft3 (2800 kg/m3) Young’s modulus : 10,400,000. psi (72 GPa) Poison’s ratio: 0.33 The Step Module Under the General procedure type there are two basic types of dynamic analysis; implicit and explicit. ABAQUS/Standard uses the implicit Hilber-Hughes-Taylor operator for integration of the equations of motion. This offers the use of all elements in ABAQUS but can be slower than Explicit. ABAQUS/Explicit?uses the central-difference operator. In an implicit dynamic analysis the integration operator matrix must be inverted and a set of nonlinear equilibrium equations must be solved at each time increment. ABAQUS Explicit ABAQUS/Explicit offers fewer element types than ABAQUS/Standard. For example, only first-order, displacement method elements (4-node quadrilaterals, 8-node bricks, etc.) and modified second-order elements are used, and each degree of freedom in the model must have mass or rotary inertia associated with it. However, the method provided in ABAQUS/Explicit has some important advantages: The analysis cost rises only linearly with problem size, whereas the cost of solving the nonlinear equations associated with implicit integration rises more rapidly than linearly with problem size. Therefore, ABAQUS/Explicit is attractive for very large problems. The explicit integration method is more efficient than the implicit integration method for solving extremely discontinuous
