ABAQUS Users' Conference 2003

The 2003 ABAQUS Austria Users' Conference

Nov 24-25, 2003 in Vienna


Background:
Whether you're a long-time user or new to ABAQUS, you shouldn't miss our annual regional meeting. This one-day event focuses on important developments and innovative uses of the ABAQUS product suite. You'll have the chance to preview new capabilities, provide feedback to ABAQUS staff and network with your engineering peers.


The social event on the evening of Nov-24 gives you the opportunity to meet colleagues of the ABAQUS user family in a relaxed Viennese atmosphere.

User Presentations:
User technical presentations are a highlight of the meeting. If you are interested in sharing your ABAQUS experience, please e-mail an abstract or PowerPoint presentation for consideration to info@abaqus.at  before Oct-15, 2003. Presentations should describe novel applications of ABAQUS to important and challenging design problems. We have limited time slots available for speakers, so we recommend you submit proposals early. We will waive the conference registration fee for speakers.

New ABAQUS Release:
The meeting will also preview ABAQUS Version 6.4, which will ship this autumn. Version 6.4 is a major release with scores of new features. Joop Nagtegaal from ABAQUS, Inc. USA will be in Vienna to answer your questions concerning new capabilities of ABAQUS.

 

 

Pre-meeting Seminar:
On Nov-24, we will conduct the following 1-day training seminar:

 

“Contact in ABAQUS/Standard V6.4”*
Understanding the interaction between bodies is essential for solving many engineering problems. Manufacturing processes, gears, bearings, seals, and dynamic impact events all involve contact. Engineers at ABAQUS have developed many techniques and guidelines for solving challenging contact problems. Participants are given an overview of the contact formulation and contact logic used in ABAQUS/Standard in general as well as a summary of new developments in V6.4. The seminar also informs about the new diagnostic visualization functionality in connection with contact analysis incorporated in ABAQUS/CAE V6.4.

The seminar is suitable for experienced ABAQUS users familiar with the basics of contact simulation (download seminar details).

*Seminar lecturer: Joop Nagtegaal, ABAQUS Inc., Pawtucket RI, USA
