It can be a challenge to maintain a high quality mesh when large deformations occur in an Abaqus simulation. The 4RealSim developed remesher functionality for Abaqus is a fully automated remesh/rezone capability. It is available as plugin for Abaqus/CAE, the tool is user-friendly to use and control.
Abaqus remesher functionality
The Abaqus remesher contains the following automated functionalities
- Element quality monitored during the simulation
- Stop of analysis if element quality drops below user requirement
- Creation of new geometry from deformed mesh
- Re-assign sets and surfaces and create mesh on ‘new’ geometry
- Update history definitions like loading and BC’s
- Submission of new analysis including transfer of material state from previous to new mesh
- Merge of results from sub-analyses into a single ODB
Abaqus remesher solver support
The Abaqus remesher is available for Abaqus/Standard and Abaqus/Explicit.
Abaqus remesher advantages
Only solution for Abaqus/CAE to handle element distortion.
Abaqus/Explicit has the possibility to handle element distortion via ALE and CEL, but the 4RealSim remesher has his advantages compared to these techniques.
