Good Morning


I made a cuboid an displaced it over a short distance. Then i gave it a time and wanted to get the Force needed on a node by which the cuboid is pulled.

Abaqus shows a reaction force to me but it is not the one i calculated myself.

Between the body and the node, i made a Distribution constraint.



Can somebody explain to me, if i made a Mistake ? And how it should fit?
