I am trying to model wear occuring on two contacting surfaces in Abaqus using adaptive remeshing and the umeshmotion subroutine. For the wear calculation I need the cpress and cslip values on both surfaces. I have only been able to get cslip values on one of the contacting surface, thus only one of the surfaces will show wear. Any ideas??? Thanks.

Thats a good question, did you manage to solve the problem? Maybe it is possible to reflect the values of CSLIP for the othe component in contact through the subroutine? I look forward to your response.
