Dear collage of the forum,
I send to you in attach a model that I'm developing: it is about a bolted moment end plate connection. I have a problem, I can't continue the calculation because in the first step it says that the displacement is too big. I have been changing a lot of parameters, but I can`t find the solution.
One additional think: I have been reading some papers about FEM of bolted connections, and it says about solve problems with too much contact pairs by explicit method. How can I run the model in Abaqus in Explicit.
Thank you very much.
Regards,
jJ
