I layered the 3 parts on top of each other. I did general contact. Now i am getting this:
For 1525 beam elements either the average curvature about the local 1-direction differs by more than 0.1 degrees per unit length as compared to the default curvature or the approximate integrated curvature...
I did it as a beam element and the top and bottom layers as solids. I merged all the parts together and tried to submit the Job. Now i am getting this error:
In step 1, some contact edge thicknesses for general contact were reduced from the parent element or specified values due to a large...
I tried decreasing the element size up to 0.2 but it still didn't work.
I am new to abaqus so can you please explain more about the beam elemnts and shell elements?
