Hello everybody
I am trying to run a model with a surface-to-surface interaction (Abaqus - standard 6.12). The interaction is between soil and aluminium piles. I faced an error and I have not been able to solve it yet. I would appreciate it if anybody could help me solve it please. The error is:
Surface assembly_soil-pile6 has facets that are not oriented properly with respect to each other. Check the element connectivities for underlying elements 115121 instance soilbody-new-1 and 122806 instance soilbody-new-1 (sharing the common edge whose end points are nodes 6448 instance soilbody-new-1 and 495 instance soilbody-new-1), as well as the *surface data cards to ensure that the surface normals are consistent. This message will not be repeated for other facets on this surface with similar problem.
Surface assembly_soil-pile6 has facets that are not oriented properly with respect to neighboring facets. Use available post processor to visualize surface normals.
Thanks,
Twana
