    hard contact and mpc

    hello I'm modeling two solids: an hard contact exists between the two solids so that there is no penetration of one solid in the other. Then I want to constraint a part of the common surface with a MPC function in order to link the two solids. An error message occurs : because of the MPC...

    plasticity

    I'm doing a plastic analysis ( perfect plasticity ) and I get this warning before the analysis stops ***WARNING: THE STRAIN INCREMENT HAS EXCEEDED FIFTY TIMES THE STRAIN TO CAUSE FIRST YIELD AT --- POINTS ***WARNING: THE STRAIN INCREMENT IS SO LARGE THAT THE PROGRAM WILL NOT...

    One element differs

    When I'm performing a static analysis, one element differs from the others in the result (big discontinuity in the stress field). Any idea where it can come from? Thanx Bat585

    Removing a boundary condition

    I'm trying to remove boundary conditions in the last step of a steady state analysis. The problem is that the reaction forces are too important and removing the boundary conditions implies a too big movement of one of my parts. -> Fixed time increment is too large What should I do...

    sequentially coupled thermal stress analysis

    Hello I'm tying to get the residual stress in a welded structure. I'm making a sequentially coupled thermal stress analysis: I use the temperature history of the heat transfert analysis as a predefined field in the stress analysis. I have exaclty the same mesh in the two analysis. I get a...
