I'm doing a fatigue analysis on a simple mount in ABAQUS which contains Steel and rubber as materials. Fatigue in the steel is important and the damage data is imported just for the steel. But these errors come up!
This suboption is out of place
There are too few lines to define this material option
EXPONENT, am, MUST BE GREATER THAN ZERO
having steel and Rubber for Fatigue analysis, usually steel is modeled as rigid becuase rubber is much more softer that steel and tension stress will be much higher in rubber (Max. Princib) than steel. If you say steel is very important it may fail there befor rubber (which is strange for me) then try to understand the force transmitted to the steel from the rubber part. It is easy if you look on Pressure and other output variables. then you can define the load on steel without even having the rubber (Idealization)
You can also conduct a fatigue analysis by defining suitable amplitude.
