Mustaine3, wow, so I use excel and MATLAB to automate the process to create the script. I was reducing my python file and I found that the reason why my findAt command would not work to apply loads was because I was rotating the instance before applying them. For some reason, it works when I...
Mustaine3, thank you for the quick reply, and I really appreciate your help. I literally put in the same exact code as yours, I just changed the coordinates and load to match mine. Still no luck and I get the same error.
The loads are in the Abaqus file, except it says "the set 'Set-x' which...
Mustaine3, sorry, I shouldn't have said applying loads to datum points. Now I am aware of the difference.
Anyway, I want to apply the load to it's real geometric point. The findAt command will not find the geometric point. The error I get is that Abaqus can not find the "geometric entity at...
Hello,
I am studying tree branches with Abaqus and my model is a wire connected by 3D datum points. To represent leaves, a concentrated force is applied to that point on the branch, which is an x,y,z coordinate that already exists in the model. Modeling these tree branches is very time...
