abageotests

A package to generate and execute python scripts of abaqus models of geotechnical tests.

Dependencies

In order to use this package, you need to install the numpy and matplotlib package:

pip install numpy
pip install matplotlib

And furthermore, install abaqus properly, and link the FORTRAN compiler to abaqus, and add the abaqus commands directory to the system path environment.

And then install this package:

pip install abageotests

Examples

This is an minimal example:

from abageotests import *

dst = AbaqusDirectShearTest(AbaqusCalculationMethod.Standard)

# geometries of the modle
dst.SoilGeometry(0.025, 0.025, 0.025)
dst.SolidGeometry(0.05, 0.05, 0.05)
# material properties
dst.SoilMaterial(4e4, 0.0, 2e8)
dst.SolidMaterial(2e8, 0.0, 2.0)
# steps
dst.GeneralStaticStep('Initial-Stress', time_period=1.0, initial_increment_size=0.1, 
                      maximal_increment_size=1.0, maximal_increments=10000)
dst.GeneralStaticStep('Shear', time_period=1.0, initial_increment_size=0.01, 
                      maximal_increment_size=0.01, maximal_increments=1000000)
# mesh parameters
dst.SoilMesh(AbaqusMeshMethod.ByNumber, 1)
dst.SolidMesh(AbaqusMeshMethod.ByNumber, 1)
# output variables
dst.DefaultFieldOutput(['S', 'E', 'LE', 'U', 'RF', 'RT', 'RM', 'P', 
                        'CSTRESS', 'CDISP', 'CFORCE', 'CNAREA', 'CSTATUS'])
dst.DefaultHistoryOutput(['U1', 'RF1'], 50)
# loads
dst.SoilDisplacement(0.006, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)
dst.VerticalPressure(310)
