But when I look at the calculation results I found the same deformed shapes for both step 1 and 2!
does it mean that your method will only work when the load is Force or I need some commands to keep the first load step results?
thanks!
here is my input file for ANSYS 5.6
I want to simulate a large deformation for a slice, which glids on a cylindrical plan. The Bilinear behavior is used as material characteristics, and large geometrical non linearity is on. The loads are imposed displacements. In face, cause ANSYS told...
I am searching the possibilité to use the deformed
shape in a load step as an original one (together with the stress field) to contiuer the next load step calculation!
Any help will be appreciated!
I know this command,
but it is not convinient!
Is it possible to treat a set of nodes
at the same time? Or to apply a local rotation
(on elements SOLID45)! Anyway, the element SOLID45 has
only UX UY UZ as DOF.
