Description

Product Overview:

Enhancing mesh efficiency in Abaqus is critical for reducing computational time without sacrificing model accuracy. This comprehensive tutorial series dives into advanced meshing techniques within Abaqus/CAE, particularly suited for 3D geometries, models with contact, and components featuring complex topologies such as holes or curved paths.

In this course, you’ll learn how to strategically partition geometry, apply specialized meshing methods like sweep, medial axis, and advancing front, and optimize mesh density based on stress concentration zones. Practical examples and PowerPoint explanations are included to ensure clear understanding, alongside guidance on essential tools like mesh quality verification and node dragging for element refinement.
