Self-Penetration of Hyperelastic Material during Deformation in Abaqus
Self-Penetration of Hyperelastic Material during Deformation in Abaqus
(OP)
I am attempting to model an ellipsoid shell with hyperelastic material properties--one side of the ellipsoid is tied to a rigid sphere that is held stationary while the other side is tied to a rigid sphere that is pulled with a specific concentrated force. However, during deformation, the top and bottom of the ellipsoid surface penetrate one another. How can that self-penetration be eliminated?
Thank you!
Thank you!
