Abaqus Tutorial 24: Threaded connector & pressure penetration

This tutorial explains how to use a bolt load and assessment of a connection by means of pressure penetration interaction. This tutorial is specially interesting for the offshore / oil & gas industry.

When you complete this tutorial, you will be able to:

• use advanced features to define particular loads and complex contact.
• Make the axisymmetric model
  Create boundary conditions and loads.
• Simulate the fluid opening the threaded connection.
• Visualize and revolve the results.
  Found out where the maximum pressure penetrates.
