Product: Abaqus/CAE
Benefits: You can now create materials with nonlinear magnetic permeability. This option expands the coverage of magnetic properties to include soft magnetic materials.
Description: Magnetic permeability properties are required to complete eddy current and magnetostatic analyses. Previously only linear magnetic permeability definitions were supported by Abaqus/CAE. With this enhancement, you can now define nonlinear magnetic permeability material properties. To define nonlinear magnetic permeability, you create one or more B-H curves that define the strength of the magnetic flux density versus the strength of the magnetic field in the material.
