Hi;
I am working on modeling SSY condition using boundary layer solution. I used the excell file attached to above mentioned threat by Mrgoldthorpe (whom I really appreciate his consideration and kindness) but no displament occures in my model. Actually, I think my problem is with applying displacement in ABAQUS input file. Why there is no displacement when I run my model?
I replaced node numbers with my specific ones but steel nothing appears.
I am greately looking foreward to hearing from you. I would be appreciate if anyone let me have one input file sample with displacement load.
Thank you

Hi,
My original example had an AMPLITUDE parameter on *BOUNDARY. You don't actually need this parameter; but if you have it you must ensure that the amplitude is unity during the time step that applies the displacements on the boundary of the model. Of course, if the amplitude is zero you'll get no displacements.
