Product: Abaqus/Standard
Benefits: You can convert the results from a time-harmonic eddy current analysis to a form that is usable in a subsequent heat transfer, coupled temperature-displacement, or stress/displacement analysis.
Description: The new abaqus emloads utility takes as input your eddy current analysis results output database (.odb) file and your input file for the subsequent analysis and creates an output database file containing a mesh matching your subsequent analysis and steady-state concentrated nodal fields consistent with the eddy current analysis results. The new output database file can be used to define concentrated heat fluxes and/or loads in a subsequent heat transfer, coupled temperature-displacement, or stress/displacement analysis. The new execution procedure thus facilitates modeling the interactions of the electromagnetic fields with thermal and/or mechanical fields in a sequentially coupled manner.
