Linear Dynamics with Abaqus

Fundamentals of Algorithms and Methods for Analyzing Linear Dynamic Problems with Abaqus/Standard

 

Course objective

This course is designed for engineers with prior experience in Abaqus. The course language is German, with an optional English version available.

Participants will be introduced to the algorithms and methods used to analyze linear dynamic problems with Abaqus/Standard. The training covers eigenmode extraction, transient and steady-state response analysis, and the application of damping in linear systems. By the end of the course, attendees will be able to create complete finite element models for linear dynamic simulations, run analyses, and interpret results effectively.

Upon completion of this course, you will be able to:

  • Extract eigenmodes within a defined frequency range
  • Optimize convergence rates during eigenvalue computation
  • Determine whether the number of extracted eigenmodes sufficiently represents the structural response
  • Perform transient, steady-state, response spectrum, and random response analyses using eigenmodes
  • Apply multiple base excitations
  • Implement damping in linear problems

The course is divided into lectures, demonstrations and workshops.
