Constraint matching between ANSYS and ABAQUS in CATIA V5

Constraint matching between ANSYS and ABAQUS in CATIA V5

Constraint matching between ANSYS and ABAQUS in CATIA V5

(OP)
Hello,

i know this is a bit of a long shot but i will ask anyway.

i am currently trying to match FEA results from ANSYS with FEA results from ABAQUS in CATIA V5.
I need to understand how to replicate the restraints of ANSYS with ABAQUS. Specifically, i need to replicate the ANSYS constraint "compression only support" in ABAQUS in CATIA.
I have tried to use just the clamp on a split surface of a part and calculated to give similar results (i.e stress pattern etc) to ANSYS but CATIA outputs larger numbers.

if anyone could help me with this i would be very grateful. even if it is to state that the FEA systems are too different to match results

cheers
