Product: Abaqus/Explicit
Benefits: You can define the friction coefficient as a function of temperature and field variables with the general contact algorithm in Abaqus/Explicit.
Description: The friction coefficient for the Coulomb friction model can now depend on slip rate, contact pressure, temperature, and field variables. Previously, dependence of the friction coefficient on temperature and field variables was not available with the general contact algorithm in Abaqus/Explicit.
