Hi all,
I am doing a contact simulation and would like to obtain the total area in contact. I am able to get an output using:
************************
*Output, history
*CONTACT OUTPUT, MASTER=masterSurf, SLAVE=slaveSurf
CAREA
************************
However, the output is a single integer...
I am working on modelling the response of an orthotropic hyperelastic material (vein) to a given load. Because the local thickness of the material is unknown, shell elements with a constant thickness are used. I am able to get the simulation to run. However, I had some questions about the...
Hi,
I am currently working on a simulation with a thin Nitinol wire. A rigid body is displaced down until it contacts and bends the wire, producing ~3% max strain. The rigid body is then displaced back up until the two come out of contact.
The strange thing is, the simulation runs fine in the...
