Hi everybody,
I am trying to model a cantilever beam using wire. All I want is a distributed tangential load along the beam that is following the rotation of local elements (defined using local coordinate system).
I searched Abaqus documentation and tried myself, but I found that a distributed...
Hi all,
I am studying the dynamic instability and post-critical wave-like oscilation of Beck's column. I want to get some experimental results to compare to the analytical solution.
A Beck's column is simply a cantilever beam with a tangential follower force at the tip.
One experiment we have...
Suppose I have a 3D beam and I wanna apply a tip load as shown in the figure below:
I want to apply the tip load on the middle of the top edge.
The 3D simulation results look good. Below is the deformation graph:
Now I want to model it in 2D as a wire:
However, I can only apply the tip...
