Abaqus and
Fitness for Service Training
Course Objective
This courses offers a detailed and complete Introduction to Abaqus and Fitness for Service. At the end of the courses, users will have the core skills required to develop proficiency in modelling and analysis with the ability to expand their skills to use more advanced features. Products included are Abaqus/CAE, Abaqus/Standard, and Abaqus/Explicit.
Introduction to Abaqus course covers the following topics:
- Linear and nonlinear analysis
- Static, dynamic, and quasistatic analysis
- Working with native and imported geometry
- Material modelling
- Preparing assemblies
- Meshing techniques and elements
- Loads, boundary conditions, contact, and constraints
- Analysis sequence and procedures
- Results visualization
Fitness for Service course covers the following topics:
- Linear and Nonlinear finite element analysis procedures
- Modeling pressure vessel geometries
- Modeling loads and boundary conditions
- Fitness-for-Service assessment procedures
- FEA based Level – 3 Assessment
The course will be a combination of lectures, demonstrations, and workshops.
Who should attend:
This course is for engineers, designers, and analysts who are new to Abaqus. No previous knowledge of Abaqus or other FEA software is required, but understanding of the finite element method, previous exposure to FEA software, CAD modelling, and continuum mechanics is an asset.
