Help needed in placing a displacement on a model.
Help needed in placing a displacement on a model.
(OP)
Hi,
Previously I've been placing a model under various different loads however I've recently realized that a more appropriate simulation would be to elongate the model via a displacement and measure the force.
After taking a look through the ABAQUS/CAE User's Manual and in 16.10.2 it describes how to do so by Boundary Conditions, however I haven't been able to do so. Is this the correct way to do it or is there another way?
Thanks

My best guess is that you have not constrained all 6 degrees of freedom.

I'm now working in a 2D environment.
Ive constrained the bottom in U1, U2 and UR3.
So to apply a displacement to the top edge I use BC and assign a magnitude?
Thanks
