Okay that is fair enough, this is the first program I have used to view ABAQUS outputs so I just assumed it was fairly common. I do not know how to see the S11 component, all I can output is Stress (S) for each element and view the scalar results as with the fringe.
If anyone knows how to view...
I'm looking for the Indentifier Key to output the Spring force variable from my model to the dat or odb file.
Does anyone know what the variable I'm looking for is?
Cheers
Hello,
Me and my colleagues are interesting in creating a universal Batch Mesh setup, which we can run on all kinds of brackets and holders and create the same quality mesh, with no violating elements. I am having trouble finding suitable parameters to choose, particularlz for the various...
There are no other defitions in the overclosed regions, just the contact definition. I have removed the friction (which did seem to work) and am now running the analysis as Dynamic, Quasi-Static per the advice of a colleague. Im not sure if this was what has caused my new issue, but there is no...
Okay, I have set that up but I am getting a warning in the message file:

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. The overclosure is included on purpose. It represents the real parts in the assembly, where the axel is slightly larger than the gap it is pushed into, in order to hold it in place
In my job there is an axel which is forced through a bore. The bore has several `noses` or `ribs` which are used to hold the axel in place while reducing friction during assembly. There is an over-closure between the noses and the axel in the model, which creates a large stress in this location...
