    How to: stress output at non-default Integration Points?

    No responses so far... I am surprised. Is this question more difficult than I imagined? Kind regards, Gordon.

    How to: stress output at non-default Integration Points?

    Dear all, The last question I had was answered very helpfully on this forum, I am hoping you can help me again! Basically I have some problems understanding how to get output at a point other than the default integration point. I have a model of a pipeline using PIPE31H elelements...

    Static & Implicit Dynamic steps ignore beam thicknesses in contact

    I solved that one as well! Turns out step 1 is actually the first real step, rather than the initial step :) Decreasing the initial increment size for that step did the trick. Thanks again cooken, was stuck on this for several days! Regards.

    Static & Implicit Dynamic steps ignore beam thicknesses in contact

    Fast response, thanks a lot cooken!! I'm using 6.13, and upon checking a simple model, it seems that you are absolutely right. For general contact, the offset is taken into account properly. Now to figure out how to get general contact going in my model.. The error I get right from the get-go...

    Static & Implicit Dynamic steps ignore beam thicknesses in contact

    Ah, and I should probably add that the contact problem is NOT solved by changing from a surface-to-surface to a surface-to-node-region discretization method. I use surface-to-surface type contact formulation.

    Static & Implicit Dynamic steps ignore beam thicknesses in contact

    Hey Guys, I've known about this forum for a while and every now and again a google search takes me here for a helpful answer or two. Now, I have a new problem and I CANT find an answer. In short, I would like to model a dynamic process involving a moving, rigid, shell and a very much...
