Hello,
I can`t get correct deflection values using solid elements for simply supported beam. Verification example is shown below (analitical deflection is 3.33 mm).
ABAQUS works well with wire and shell elemnts, but using solid elements deflection is 100 times bigger :/ Maybe someone faced...
Thanks, MechIrl. That realy works. For other users I attached constraint window picture.
The only thing I don`t understand - why is needed second row with only one node in set ?
[Couple DOFs] - very useful function in ANSYS allowing to union displacement in one or severeal directions for selected nodes. It is often used to simulate pressure or linear load, attaching concentrated load to one of the coupled nodes.
I haven`t found the way to do similar task in ABAQUS. I...
