After analysis i get mises stress with which I can get bolt force.But i also need total applied load on bolt for which I selected output of reaction force and total force but I am getting both values as zero.what could be the thing?
I am designing bolt as a solid.Also I wanna ask is my loading is in two steps, 1st pretension of 90kN and 2nd monotonic displacement of 4mm/s.For 2nd step i need to keep applying till one of the part completely yields but what should be the time duration 1 or more?And ultimately I want the bolt...
Hello guys, it would be kind if someone help me with abaqus. So i am new to this software.
I am modelling a Endplate bolted connection for steel structures.I have provided loading in 2 steps, 1st with bolt pretension of 90 kN and in 2nd with monotonic displacement of 4mm/s. So my ultimate goal...
