Thanks for your suggestion
I checked these and only some (+-10 nodes) are not included, but these nodes are located somewhere else, not at the stress-concentration location
Hi Mustaine.
I only defined a tie knot constrain at those nodes (the nodes from the cup are the slave nodes). I selected this for all the nodes that are on the outside of the cup, but the others do not show a problem.
Hi Mustaine,
Thank you for your reply and help. I use linear elastic homogenous material properties. I did not define plasticity because with this relatively low amount of force the materials should not plastically deform. At first i thought the cause for these high stress elements was because...
Hi everyone,
I am doing a FEM-analysis in Abaqus of a human hip with an implant. However, when I apply a static load of 2000N (which occurs during walking) I obtain a high stress (400 Mpa) for a few elements at the interface between bone and implant(see figure top left). The majority of the...
