Hi,
I have one small problem, i'm trying to simulate tied contact between two components in Abaqus explicit and the problem is i don't know how to establish a criterion that loses the contact when the shear stress arrives at a certain magnitude (i'm doing a pull out simulation). There is no initial stress in the material so i cannot use *Friction option. Thanks in advance for any tips,

Jungus
