    Hi, I have been trying to model a slip joint. I have been able to model it but there is something going wrong with my contact and because of which my model fails at 0.2ksi stress whereas the yield stress is 65ksi. I have used surface to surface interaction with adjustment to remove overclosure...

    Slip joint

    Hi, I have uploaded my file. I am not sure where I am going wrong. It will nice if you can help me with it Thankshttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=575294d8-86a1-4366-bb38-9abc11d4d446&file=slipjoint.cae

    Slip joint

    yes.I have played around with the time step but still i am unable to find out what is going wrong?And also my model should fail only after it reaches the yield stress of steel but it fails in 5000psi itself. I am unable to figure out why this is happening

    Slip joint

    Hi, I am trying to model a slip joint of poles using ABAQUS. I have been successfully able to model it however when I try to run the analysis to study the stresses developed in the slip joint of two poles it always says time increment too large and the simulations stop. I am unable to figure...
