9.3 Memory usage reduction for large distributing coupling constraints

Product: Abaqus/Standard  

Benefits: The amount of memory needed to process distributing coupling constraints with a large number of coupling nodes is reduced.

Description: The memory needed to process distributing coupling constraints with a large number of coupling nodes in three-dimensional Abaqus/Standard analysis is reduced significantly. This improvement applies to all procedures (including static analysis), but the memory usage reduction is most noticeable in direct-solution steady-state dynamics and other procedures that support damping.
