I just realized that if all the components are modeled in one part, the contact of the the components, can not be defined as surfaces and thus the contact properties can not be used. my question is, is there a way I can still define the contact property instead of modelling different components...
I am using a function to describe a curve, so when I create the Abaqus Part, it will generate a lot of small straight lines to describe a curve. something like below.
I know I can use Virtual topology to smooth the edges, but for some complicated reasons, I can't use that tool.
Is there...
