Element-based loading
Distributed loads
Gravity loads as described in “Distributed loads,” Section 34.4.3, are the most commonly applied distributed loads for discrete particle elements. You define gravity loading in a specified direction, and the magnitude is input as acceleration.
Element output
Discrete particle elements have no element output associated with them. Resultant of all contact normal force CNORMF and resultant of all frictional shear force CSHEARF acting on a discrete particle element are the only output variables of interest currently available for this element, see “Abaqus/Explicit output variable identifiers,” Section 4.2.2, for details.

Product: Abaqus/Explicit
References
• “Smoothed particle hydrodynamics,” Section 15.2.1
• “Continuum particle element library,” Section 33.2.2
• *SOLID SECTION
Overview
Continuum particle elements:
• can be used only in explicit dynamic analyses;
• must have one node only;
• have one integration point;
• can be initialized similarly to continuum elements; and
• are fully filled with material.
Typical applications
Continuum particle elements (PC3D) are useful for simulations involving material that undergoes extreme deformation such as open-surface fluid flow or obliteration/fragmentation of solid structures. They are defined using only one node; however, the element centered at a given node (particle) receives contributions from all particles within a sphere of influence whose radius is commonly referred to as the smoothing length. The smoothed particle hydrodynamic (SPH) formulation determines at every increment of the analysis the connectivity associated with a given particle. Since nodal connectivity is not fixed, severe element distortion is avoided and, hence, the formulation allows for very high strain gradients.
The 1-node PC3D element is used to define points both on the surface and in the interior of the body to be modeled. You define these nodes similarly to mass elements, and the nodes can be placed in space the same as the nodes of a regular brick mesh. A smoothed particle hydrodynamic mesh is typically a uniformly spaced grid of elements that conforms to the shape of the body being modeled.
For more information, see “Smoothed particle hydrodynamics,” Section 15.2.1.
Defining the element’s section properties
You must associate a solid section definition with a set of continuum particle elements. The section definition provides the material associated with the PC3D elements.
As part of the solid section definition, you can define a characteristic length. This characteristic length, not to be confused with the smoothing length, is used to compute the particle volume. The volume is assumed to be a cube whose sides are equal to twice the specified characteristic length.
Input File Usage:
*SOLID SECTION, ELSET=element_set_name
characteristic length associated with the particle volume
where the ELSET parameter refers to a set of particle elements.

Distributed loads
Gravity loads as described in “Distributed loads,” Section 34.4.3, are the only distributed loads that are available for particle elements. You define gravity loading in a specified direction, and the magnitude is input as acceleration.
Element output
Output is in global directions unless a local coordinate system is assigned to the element through the section definition (“Orientations,” Section 2.2.5), in which case output is in the local coordinate system (which rotates with the motion in large-displacement analysis). See “State storage,” Section 1.5.4 of the Abaqus Theory Guide, for details.
Stress, strain, and other tensor components
Stress, strain, and other tensors are available. All tensors have the same components. For example, the stress components are as follows:
| S11 | XX, direct stress. |
| S22 | YY, direct stress. |
| S33 | ZZ, direct stress. |
| S12 | XY, shear stress. |
| S13 | XZ, shear stress. |
| S23 | YZ, shear stress. |
Note: the order shown above is not the same as that used in user subroutine VUMAT.
Nodes associated with the element

EI.1 Abaqus/Standard ELEMENT INDEX
This index provides a reference to all of the element types that are available in Abaqus/Standard. Elements are listed in alphabetical order, where numerical characters precede the letter “A” and two-digit numbers are put in numerical, rather than “alphabetical,” order. Thus, AC1D2 precedes ACAX4, and AC3D20 follows AC3D8.
For certain options, such as contact and surface-based distributing coupling, Abaqus may generate internal elements (such as IDCOUP3D for surface-based distributing coupling). These internal element names are not included in the index below but may appear in an output database (.odb) or data (.dat) file.
