Bar element - topic
4
• Bar (truss in AbaqusCAE) elements are one-dimensional rods that are
assumed to deform by axial stretching only.
• They are pin jointed at their nodes, and so only translational displacements
are used in the discretization (2 dof);
• A bar elements is well defined by: length L, elastic modulus E and section
area A
• Shape function:

Bar element - limitations

1. It can represent only a constant state of strain
2. In terms of generalized coordinates
u  1   2 x
du
x 
 2
dx
3. If axial force are applied only at nodes, the element agree exactly
with a mathematical model that represents the bar as straight line
having constant A and E between locations where axial forces are
applied
4. If axial force are distributed along all part of the length or if the
bar is tapered, then the element is only approximate
5. Distributed load can still be applied, in the form of equivalent
forces applied to nodes

AbaqusCAE structure
8
AbaqusCAE is divided into the following modules:
• Part – Create individual parts (geometry)
• Property – Create and assign material properties; for beam and bar
elements it allows to create and assign the transversal section
• Assembly – Create and place all parts in instances (assemblies): it
allows to translate, to rotate, to duplicate each part
• Step – Define all analysis steps and the results you want (output): the
analysis may be static, dynamic, frequency
• Interaction – Define any contact information or special constraints
• Load – Define and place all loads (force, moment, pressure, body
gravity,…) and boundary conditions (encastre, pin,…)
• Mesh – Define nodes and elements of the discretized structure
• Job – Create the input file for abaqus solver; submit directly the job
for analysis (abaqus solver embedded)
• Visualization – View your results

Exercise 1 – Modeling geometry
9
Module Part
• Sketch the part as 2D planar
deformable wire
Note: in module part it’s possible
to create 1D, 2D and 3D geometry
as like as another CAD software
AbaqusCAE is not so powerful: if
you want to create complex
geometry, it’s better to use other
CAD system (CATIA, ProE,
SolidWorks,…) and import the
model in AbaqusCAE

Exercise 1 – Defining property
10
Module Property
• Define material property
• Create section with area A
and material just defined
• Assign the section defined to
the relative segment of the
structure

Exercise 1 – Assembly and CSYS
11
Module Assembly
• Assembly the part!! Even if
there’s only one part it must be
create an assembly (instance)
• Assembly may be created as
dependent (the mesh will be
created on each part) or
independent (the mesh will be
created on the assemblyinstance)
• Create a new CSYS rectangular
located in 3 and directed as
segment 3 (use 3 point method)

Exercise 1 – Step
12
Module Step
• Create a step in which it’s
defined the analysis type
(static, dynamic, frequency)
• For this ex: static, general

Exercise 1 – Load and boundary
13
Module Load
• Define the force in 2
• Define boundary condition
in 1, 2 and 3 (for bc_3 use
local CSYS)

Exercise 1 - Mesh
14
Module Mesh
• Assign mesh type (solver
standard-static, order linear,
family truss)
• Define mesh seed
(partition of the edge): seed
by size (assign dimension of
element); seed by number
(define number of elem. on
the edge)
• Create mesh of the part
(automatic process)

Exercise 1 - Job
15
Module Mesh
• Write input file
(launch the solver
from external shell)
• Data check (evaluate
inp file – find error)
• Monitor: pop-up window with warnings,
errors and process messages
• Results: load the solution of the analysis
(it brings you to module visualization)

•Submit: launch solver
(write files in work
directory: see .dat!)

2. Find other solutions
3. Compare max stress and displacement (look at total
weight and total cost) of each solution
