    Abaqus edge shell contact problem

    Hi. I have a problem with the contact between beams and shell. General contact was adopted and the second following sentence was added between the first and the third. *Contact *contact formulation, type=edge to edge, forlumation=radial //added in the keywords. *Contact Inclusions, ALL...

    Contact between a 3D beam and a shell

    Dear All I have a question about a contact between a 3D beam and a shell. The beam is subjected to a line load. The soft contact (linear method) is used. How do I choose the contact stiffness? I have already tried from 1 to 1000. If the contact stiffness was larger than 950, it would not...

    A 3D beam contacts with a 3D shell

    Hi, Thanks for your reply. I have already added more boundary conditions to this model and it did work. When I check the final results, there are something wrong with the contact location. I have read that general contact is more approximate for the beam contact. Also, one paper related my model...

    A 3D beam contacts with a 3D shell

    Dear All: I am doing a simulation in Abaqus about A 3D beam contacts with a 3D shell. One end of this beam is fully fixed and the other end contacts with a shell. The shell is loaded with an upward movement (in Z-direction)which may deform the beam. The results are so weird. The shell rotates...

    A cantilever beam subjected to the uniform pressure load

    Hi. Sorry for reply late. I think it's correct about the analytical side although Large deformation is considered. I think the main reason maybe associated with the element type(C3D8I). I will continue to work on this then post my new findings.

    A cantilever beam subjected to the uniform pressure load

    Hello everyone, I am trying to calculate the max deflection u2 of a cantilever beam. The cross-section is circle whose radius (r) is 0.01m and length (l)is 1m.One end is fixed and one end is free. This beam is subjected to a pressure on its upper circumferential surface with 10000Pa. In order to...

    2D Beam with the circle section, Pressure loading

    Hi all, I have a question about pressure loading on a 2D beam with a circular section. I have already tried a case and got its deformation. But I don't know how to verify this model. There are many formulas in the textbook about the line loading. Could you please help me to find a formula to...
