How to find the unit system for an ABAQUS Model

Have you tried setting up an ABAQUS model but unsure what unit system you should use? This is a common issue because ABAQUS is a unit-less software. You have to decide on a unit system and input parameters based on dimensional consistency for that unit system. In this video I will show you how to work within a unit system for your ABAQUS model and illustrate this for three length scales i.e. metre, millimetre and micrometre. #cmvideos #abaqustutorial #rve #unit #abaqusunit #composites #pbcgen2d #montcarlgen #periodicboundarycondition
