Viscosity

Material shear viscosity is an internal property of a fluid that offers resistance to flow. It can be specified in Abaqus/Explicit.

Material shear viscosity in Abaqus/Explicit:

  • can be a function of temperature and shear strain rate; and

  • must be used in combination with an equation of state (Equation of state).
