    SOL601 Convergence / Incremental Loading

    I am quite new to non-linear analysis and NX. I have a large displacement and contact problem and the solution fails at big loads while it converges at very small loads. Can I apply loads gradually so that the solution converges and if yes how? I know that that there is a Load vs Time setting...

    Pretension using Temperature Difference

    Hi, I am trying to simulate a wire that is pretensioned and clamped on a ring and then loaded transversely. I apply a negative temperature on the wire (I modelled the wire alone with axial loading and found the appropriate temperature) but the results are way off the expected results. I found...

    1D 2D mesh connection

    I have some beam elements (rod) and a surface meshed with 2D elements. I have created mesh points on the surface where the 1D elemens nodes are. How can I connect the beam with the surface without using node to node 1d connection since it requires a section?
