Hi,

I'm not used to work with Abaqus on electrical issues.
So now i wonder what this erros means:
COUPLED THERMAL-ELECTRICAL ANALYSIS IS NOT MEANINGFUL SINCE THERE ARE NO TEMPERATURE OR ELECTRICAL POTENTIAL DEGREES OF FREEDOM IN THE MODEL

I want to make an analyse of the electric potential in a spezimen. putting a current of 0.5A to it. Seems that my BCs are wrong?

Sorry for double post.
Perhaps it would be good to know for me what Deegres of Freedom are in case of Electrical Potential.

Does someone have an idea?
