Hello again, thanks for the FAQ links and the help. I have solved it. I constrained the displacement and rotation at the axle by placing a boundary condition constraining U1 and UR1 at the reference point, and it worked! That should suffice for now, since the simulation is signifying the moment...
Thank you so much! Yes, when I apply it directly to the axle, the simulation does work. I have already tried to apply the MPC Beam constraint directly to the geometry of the partitioned segment of the axle (without using node sets) and got aborted as well. I think what I have to do is prescribe...
I do keep getting this message in the msg file for the job:
***WARNING: SOLVER PROBLEM. NUMERICAL SINGULARITY WHEN PROCESSING NODE
ASSEMBLY.1 D.O.F. 4 RATIO = 4.64480E+15.
I defined this MPC between the axle and reference point by specifying a set of nodes on the axle then...
Hello everyone, hope you're all doing well in this current situation, as well as your loved ones! Hope you can help me as i'm really stuck on this one.
Im applying a vertical and horizontal load on an ABAQUS 2D beam assembly as shown. I need it to be at the red point that is under the model as...
