Publisher's Synopsis
This book aims to provide the practical information to perform finite element analysis of nonlinear problems in Abaqus. It presents only the basic theory that is necessary for an analyst involved in performing analysis using commercial software. The book presents 27 hands-on tutorials providing intensive instructions to perform analysis of nonlinear problems. During such analysis it is very common to face convergence difficulties. Special sections are devoted to diagnose such difficulties and take the corrective action. The cae models to practice the exercises are also provided for the student edition of the Abaqus.
