Hi,
I am new to Ansys and I am trying to simulate pulling two curved beam, joined at one end point, straight and during the process, the beams will touch one another. I am having trouble trying to assign some kind of contact or interaction (hard contact, rough surface) so that the beams don't go...
Hi,
I am new to Ansys with some experience with ABAQUS. I am trying to simulate pulling a curved beam straight and during the process, the beam will touch itself. I was able to do this in ABAQUS but in Ansys, I am having trouble trying to assign some kind of contact or interaction (hard...
Hi,
I am planning to simulate a hexagonal network of 1500 nodes with a connector element connecting between each adjacent node pairs. The connectors are used to simulate a variable-stiffness spring as it's being stretched. I am currently using ABAQUS/CAE as the preprocessor and the only...
Hi,
Could someone please offer some suggestions to what I thought was a simple
modeling problem that turned out otherwise? I am trying to model, using
ABAQUS/CAE, a spring element with variable spring constant depending on its
displacement according to a list of tabulated values. The spring...
