Hi, I'm trying to wrap a polymer sheet (C3D8R elements) onto a wire (B31 elements) using a pressure applied to the sheet. The wire component is completely fixed. Currently I have general contact with a penalty applied to the entire model. The polymer sheet passes about 1/3rd of the way through...
I am using a rigid cylinder to crimp a covered stent. It works perfectly when I apply the radial displacement directly to the crimper geometry, but I want to get the radial force output from one node. I have tried using an equation constraint but when the crimper makes contact with the stent the...
