    Sliding a rod normal to a curved 3D surface

    HI Mustaine3, Thanks for the reply. The problem is I want a cylindrical rod to contact normal to a 3D curved surface. There is a condition that the rod tip must be contacting only at the surface NORMALS. How can I align this rod,exactly normal to particular node on the 3D surface.

    Sliding a rod normal to a curved 3D surface

    Hi, I am trying to model a rod which contact and slides along the normals of the curved 3D surface. Initially I want to know how can we allign the rod normal to the 3D surface normal of the curved portion. Then in another step, I like to slide it along that direction maintaining the same angle...

    Rotating deformable parts in eroding contact in Abaqus Explicit

    Hi Saqibanwar..did u find any solution solution for that problem..because I too going through same problem. I want a rotating disc to contact a rigid body and slide. When I give VR3 and V1 to ref point in two diff steps, its says we cant define two conditions in one node. How have you solved...

    ABAQUS_Sliding contact with downward dis (box sliding on another box)_BUT THE BOX NOT SLIDING

    Hi, I wanted to model Sliding contact with downward disp on a box sliding on another box in ABAQUS. Used 3D shell planar extrusion for both the big and small box. Dynamic explicit steps, with general contact (explicit), frictional contact with penalty method Used two steps (i) Loading (ii)...
