Advanced solver for implicit/explicit analysis

What do you like best about Abaqus?

Compared to other FEA solvers, it’s easier to read the input file, and I like being able to use defined names instead of numbers (as in the Nastran family of solvers). Very helpful is the nearly full integration between explicit and implicit solvers.

What do you dislike about Abaqus?

Preprocessor: Despite its capabilities, it’s very difficult to work with. Many options can’t be read from the solver input file because they aren’t supported. So, to preprocess models, you need a good preprocessor

What problems is Abaqus solving and how is that benefiting you?

If you need to run implicit and explicit analysis from one environment, this is the solver you need. That said, competitors are developing fast, so it’s worth keeping an eye on the alternatives.

Accurate Nonlinear Results and a Logical Debugging Experience

What do you like best about Abaqus?

Abaqus provides accurate results for nonlinear problems, and the debugging process is very logical, which I like the most.

What do you dislike about Abaqus?

It’s a little complex for new users, and it usually comes with a high cost and requires substantial computing resources.

What problems is Abaqus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Abaqus can solve linear and non-linear static problems, as well as linear dynamic analyses, for a model. This allows me to evaluate the model’s structural and modal behaviour, which helps in improving the design.

Abaqus is best!

What do you like best about Abaqus?

Give the most accurate simulation answer.

What do you dislike about Abaqus?

For analysis setup, it is very time taking process.

What problems is Abaqus solving and how is that benefiting you?

My project is on 3D prining. So it gives the option for additive manufacturing.

nothing special, only the interface could be changed every little problem i had it was really professional and helpful to get my results.

the database and the variety of the library command.

The program is great for any simulation problem and the results is better than any software

What do you like best about Abaqus?

I think the best thing the program cable of is solve any problems related to fracture mechanics and composite also can perform nonlinear analysis, you can define your own friction law even nolinear model,contact parameters as a function of pressure,gap and time!

What do you dislike about Abaqus?

one of the downsides us modeling fatigue problems XFEM needed to be taken into consideration.

What problems is Abaqus solving and how is that benefiting you?

it solve any problems related to fracture mechanics and composite, which help me in a great way in industry field, also the values come out is too much accurate.

I am using Abaqus product from past 4 years and found very useful in solving structural problems.

What do you like best about Abaqus?

I like Abaqus for its material modeling and complex problem-solving capabilities. I had personally utilized it for solving the sheet metal forming analysis and prediction. The obtained results were having good correlation with the experimental results.

What do you dislike about Abaqus?

I didn’t like the meshing capabilities of the Abaqus. The meshing tools could be improved and made user friendly to reduce the required time and cost. These is scope of improvement on the pre-processing side.

What problems is Abaqus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Abaqus have capabilities in solving the complex problem not limited to the Mechanical and Electrical field. The problems related to the static and dynamic conditions, thermal conditions can be effectively modeled and solved in Abaqus. I personally benefited for the prediction of the sheet metal behavior in sheet metal forming analysis.

Best CAE software for Implicit Nonlinear FEA

What do you like best about Abaqus?

Abaqus Contact definitions are the best. Also the material model library is broader than any other software package.

What do you dislike about Abaqus?

Preprocessing in Abaqus is way behind pre-postprocessing programmes like Hypermesh and Ansa.

What problems is Abaqus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Abaqus is best for Nonlinear contact, material nonlinearity and Advanced material models (viscoelastic, hyperelastic etc). It benefited to my job for Nonlinear static analysis.
