Hi everyone,
In my intention of create tools for abaqus to make faster simulation performance, I'd like to introduce you a new plugin to create the geometry of a drawbead for stamping simulation. The plugin creates a 2D model with the geometry of the drawbead. This model could be analyzed to obtain the friction force and this value could be introduced in the stamping simulation to consider the drawbead effect without modeling the geometry and, therefore, reducing the computational time.
Next step: Create another plugin to get the friction force value from that model and introduce it in the stamping model.
If someone is interested in the plugin, don't hesitate to contact me.
