Abaqus 6.11 - How to Create a Pin
Abaqus 6.11 - How to Create a Pin
(OP)
Hello everybody, I'm an Abaqus Beginner and i already read everything about this thing on the ''help'' but i can't resolve my problem.
I have to simulate a pin between two rigid body (100mm beam and 80mm beam), how can I do?
Thanks for your collaboration, it's very important for me.

Yes and no.
Yes: Appropriate degrees of freedom at the rigid body reference nodes must be constrained. Otherwise, the model will not even begin to converge.
No: MPC PIN itself is a constraint. Read the Analysis User's Manual.

DEFORMABLE BEAM 1 - RIGID BEAM (RP1) - PIN - RIGID BEAM (RP2) - DEFORMABLE BEAM 2 - SLIDER (RP3)
I have create MPC constraint like you say, now i apply ''constraints'' :
Rigid Body\Tie : Node of DB1 --- Reference Point RP1
Rigid Body\Tie : 1 Node of DB2 --- Reference Point RP2
Rigid Body\Tie : Other 1 Node of DB2 --- Reference Point RP3
Then I add the BCs : ENCASTRE of other node of DB1, U2=UR3=0 of RP3
Right?

The analysis is completed, in my opinion it's exactly how I expected it; now I've to let see to my chief to confirm it.
Thank you very much :)
If there are any problems I'll wrote here :)
RE: Abaqus 6.11 - How to Create a Pin
FLEXIBLE BEAM (encastred) - Beam 100mm (RP1) - PIN - Beam 80mm (RP2) - Pin - Slider (RP3, only x axis movement)
I tried to use MPC Pin between RP1/RP2 and then MPC Pin between RP2/RP3, it works but the results are absolutely wrong..
How can I do?
Thanks
