    Coupling AND XSYMM

    Thanks a lot for your help!I will try to alter the model with your tips.

    Coupling AND XSYMM

    Isn't there any possibility to apply the coupling constraint and the symmetry BC together, so I haven't to sum the reaction force at the nodes of the load area(99 nodes!). I'm going to model several beams, so the summarizing of the reaction forces will take a lot of time.

    Coupling AND XSYMM

    I'm not putting the load on the model, but the deformation of the load area. I'm using the coupling constraint because I want to know the reaction force(RF2) of the model. With the coupling constraint I can read this RF2 at the masternode.

    Coupling AND XSYMM

    I've modelled a three point bending test for a timber beam. I used the boundary condition XSYMM to model only the half of the beam and the constraint coupling to model the load (because the load will be divided over a surface). Because the two inputconditions contain several equal nodes Abaqus...
