I cant assign mass or inertia properties because I eventually want to apply these to human bone models obtained from MRI scans so its a lot of extra work to figure those out...

    Rigid Body Contact

    Hi All, I am new to Abaqus, so any help would be appreciated. I am trying to model interaction between 2 rigid bodies, a sphere and a plate. I have constrained the 2 bodies initially to have point contact. My goal is to apply a vertical displacement to the sphere for the second step to cause...
