    Difference between adding pressure load for shell and solid model

    Hi guys! Can you explain to me the difference between adding the loads in shell and solid model? Let's say a pressure of 1000 Pa is added on one face of a solid model. In shell model, in the direction of the acting pressure there is no face but line. So, do I add the same value of 1000 Pa or I...

    Odd SIF result point coordinate in XFEM analysis

    Hi all! My 3D solid model contain's a crack represented by elipse (3D/shell/planar). When calculating SIF the coordinates of the last XFEM SIF result point is outside 3D model. The SIF value at that point is calculated in millions. Did anyone had a similar problem? I attached the photo of my...

    Defininig contact surface's for loads in Abaqus submodeling

    Dear all, when the global model is subjected to more than one load, do we have to choose the contact surface's between global model and submodel for all loads in submodel or choosing contact surface's for one load only will define contact surface's for the other load's too? Regards,
