Abaqus: Creating Surface from a Node Set
Abaqus: Creating Surface from a Node Set
(OP)
Hi Guys,
This is my first post on the forum. I am currently working on a contact analysis problem. I meshed my part in Hypermesh and imported the input file into Abaqus with the required node sets for further analysis. I can't import the .iges file into Abaqus due to a lot of errors. Hence, I have to work only with the mesh to generate a slave surface for defining the interaction. Can someone please advice me on how to go about it?
Thanks,
Vig

Or create these groups in A/CAE on the mesh. This is quite simple with various selection techniques (by angle, e.g.).
