Hi all,

i want to simulate a compression and tension (with tensile instability control) of a cube (steel) with the SPH-Method in Abaqus. Unfortunately i don´t get the same results compared to the "normal" FEM calculation.

My steps are:

1) create a cube with all BC´s, Node sets, Mass etc. (explicit)

2) i change the input file (delete the elements, change Mass elements to PC3D etc.)

3) Material properties are: Density and EOS (Us-Up)

Is there anything i do wrong?

Thanks for your help.
