I have just upgraded and it works! Thanks for the help! It is nice they have added this! I would like to suggest them couple of other simple things to add them too. Maybe they will in the next version.

Sorry, 6.14-6

Yes, ABAQUS CAE 6.16-4

When I use Domain=Whole Model, there is no option for CDISP just CSTRESS, CFORCE, CTHICK ...

Ok, thanks! I have tried now to assign it and it is not possible although it is written in the Manual (“Surface output in Abaqus/Standard and Abaqus/Explicit” in “Output to the output database,” Section 4.1.3) it can't be applied for general contact. I have tried to use Interaction domain in...

Hey, why are you such a pain in the ass!!! I am watching the Abaqus Manual daily, for many different things! But I suppose I have skipped this. But why you can't just help normally instead of nagging always!

I think you are using E=19,7 MPa and you should use 19.7GPa. Or that is what I see from your table (the first one you sent). Correct me if I am wrong.

You think it is possible to use it in Abaqus/Explicit?

I am not sure film condition is usefull in this situation. If I understand it good, film condition is used in heat transfer analysis. I am using Abaqus/Explicit.

I am not sure, but I think maybe the formula you use for calculation of dc and dt is not good. You have to choose dt and dc so you get positive and rising values for plastic strain.

Is it possible to assign compressive strength to a contact between two surfaces? With damage property for contact I have defined normal (tension) and shear strength, but I don't know how to add compressive strength. For normal behavior I have used hard contact, but I would like to have the...

It is a pitty! Thanks!

So, this option is not possible in Abaqus/Explicit?

Is COPEN command possible to be assigned in CAE or just by using keywords?

Have you used the formula at the page 23.6.3-6 to calculate the plastic strain? If not, read this section of the Manual.

How have you applied/defined sinusoidal load?

You can use coupling constrain. Couple RP with the surface if you want surface to have the same force/displacement applied as for RP.

Ok. If it is not possible with surfaces can I do it like this: to couple reference point on the surface to the whole surface, and to do the same with the other surface and then to assign connector between these two RP? Have in mind that there is no distance between this two surface.

Maybe some help or advice?

Hi, my question is: Can connector be assigned between two surfaces? Connector with defined failure stress. These surfaces are flat and they are in contact (no distance between them).
