    Abaqus contact/constraint problems

    Hi, I have a curved deformable plate that I wish to flatten using 2x flat plates (1 at the top and 1 at the bottom). My question is, do I choose those 2x flat plates as a discrete or analytical rigid model? In terms of the contact property, I imagine it will be a surface-to-surface contact with...

    Capturing curvature/radius on Abaqus

    Hi, I have got a square plate that's deformed due to thermal stress. How can I extract/calculate the curvature or radius of this deformed plate? Cheers

    Warped composite plate

    Hi, I'm quite new to Abaqus. I have modelled this composite flat plate that has deformed due to temperature change. I want to perform a compression test on this deformed plate to flatten it again, so that I can see the energy required to do so. Any advice on how I can do this please?
