how to use Axisymmetric rigid surface contact element such as IRS21A or ISL21AT in the contact of analytical rigid body to deformable body in Abaqus CAE?
Abaqus, T-beam , Civil
Dear Friends,
I want to use IRS21A and ISL21AT contact elements in the contact punch, die, and blank holder with the sheet in an axisymmetric analysis of deep drawing in Abaqus. I am unsure how to utilize these elements in Abaqus CAE. Can I incorporate them in CAE or should I add them directly to the .inp file? can these elements be used with the analytical rigid body?
I would greatly appreciate it if you could share your experience regarding this matter.
Thank you
