Hi All,
I am a relatively new user of Abaqus, so please excuse me if this is a very simplistic question. I have imported the bone geometry into Abaqus (STL file of the surface geometry from CT scans of a bone). I was able to mesh the model in Abaqus and now that I want to apply loads and BC's, it's not allowing me to select specific areas of interest. Each time I try to apply a load or BC, all of the nodes on the model light up. It looks as though I am seeing the STL lines, not my meshed instance. I want to apply the BC and loads to the meshed model. Is there something I am doing incorrectly?
