Hi guys, can you help me please?
i am a new abaqus user and i would like to do this:
i have 2 adjacents solids elements (deformable), and i need to "connect" two adjacents edges so that the Uy of node's edges of the solid's 1 = Uy of neighbor node's edges of the solid's 2
i tried to do this with contraints options but it seems that is not posible to make a diplacement relationship between two edges. I achieved to do this between 2 nodes with a contraints/equation, but i have severals nodes on the edges and i don't want to make a equation for each node.
in resume i want to say:
Ux(n1) = Ux(n5); Ux(n2) = Ux(n6); Ux(n3) = Ux(n7); Ux(n4) = Ux(n8)...
*-----*-----*-----*
| solid 1 |
| |
*-----*-----*-----*
n1 n2 n3 n4
n5 n6 n7 n8
*-----*-----*-----*
| solid 2 |
| |
*-----*-----*-----*
how is posible to do this?
