I'm trying to model two rolls in 2D rolling contact. So far I haven't been able to rotate the rolls because the elements I have used (Plane82, Plane183) only have 2 degrees of freedom (UX,UY). Is it possible to construct some kind of rolling contact in 2D? Should I use a different type of element? The problem is a plane strain problem.
