Thank you for a reply! But, embedded interactions don't constrain the rotational degree of freedom, right? I have to subject the bearing to compression+shear, and there might be some lift-off from the corners. In that case, is it feasible to use the embedded contact?
Hello everyone,
I need to model an elastomeric laminated bearing in abaqus. I have the sufficient material properties. The steel laminates in the bearing are thin (~0.1"), and the bearing has a thin cover on all sides (0.2").
I have tried modeling it using 3D deformable elements, but because of...
