    ReferencePoint ID

    Bartoz, thanks a loot for your help. I am trying all what you propose in order to gain better understanding of abaqus. Regarding the problem expossed, I have just solved it by RP=a.ReferencePoint(point=( 1.0, 0.0, 0.0)) RP_id=RP.id This give me the id of the ref point then ref_point=...

    ReferencePoint ID

    I am working on a script in which I want to create a connector between a reference point and a vertices of my model. I create the reference point using~ a.ReferencePoint(point=(5.0, 0.0, 0.0)) The problem is that then I do not know how to automatically pick the reference point in order too use...

    Reporting forces at MPC

    Hi, I have a reticular structure made of beam elements. At each intersection of two beams there is a TIE MPC connection. I would like to report the forces acting on each MPC. Could anybody advice me about how to do this? Thanks

    Large displacements in shells or membranes

    In case that It was not clear, the skin has constrains on it's edges, thuss, it behaves as a sail deformed by wind.

    Large displacements in shells or membranes

    Hello, I am trying to model a structure in which one of the components is a plane rectangular thin skin. A pressure load (wind action) is applied along the surface of the skin. The problem is that my simulations do not converge when the parameters of the model correspond to a case in which large...
