Is this possible, I have these AUTOCAD files and I was wondering if it's possible to save them on autodesk under a different extension so that I could open the part in abaqus, help please
Apply one step for displacement control to make contact, followed by a new step containing the load.That's one way but I want an entire force-controlled simulation.
Is there way to have just one step using a load?
I am able to simulate the solutions by using a displacement-controlled boundary condition, but I want to use an actual concentrated load to the rigid. The two parts are not in contact but they are close enough that the force exerted on the rigid will touch and deform the deformable part, I have...
the next and last questions is if I want to plot contact force vs indentation. I have to apply a coupling constraint where I can obtain the contact force all of the nodes as my constraint region and use the reference point of the indenter as the control point...Which coupling type do I use...
most indentation problems seem to be displacement controlled, where the indenter in contact with the structure of concern are put in contact by a appying a non-zero displacement BC on the indenter towards the structure. In my model I have the indenter close in distance to the structure but not...
