Hello,
I am trying to simulate tube hydroforming process in abaqus,i am using axisymmetric model of the tube. The coupling between the pressure exerted by the contained fluid on the tube inner surface and the deformation of the tube can be modeled using (incompressible) hydraulic fluid elements available in ABAQUS.
My question is how do I apply the fluid preesure on the inner surface?. I tried using skin,i guess other method is surface based fluid modelling. I am not getting the procedure correctly.i have attached the image of the tube model.
Any help regarding the procedure would be great.
Thank you in advance.
