Dear all,

Please give some reading material on the horizontal/laterally loaded thin hollow tube, which explains with suitable formulas to calculate circumferential/hoop stresses in the thin tube subjected to lateral/horizontal loaḍ

 

Contact modelling in Abaqus - Need urgent help

Submitted by r_1159 on

Dear all

I urgently need the answer to my question. I am modelling a clapping or contact between two surfaces similar to a crack.

I have used abaqus : 1-tangential : frictionless  2-Hard contact

I wanna know what moelling approach does abaqus use for above situation ?

Does abaqsu use hertzian contac ? bilinear stiffness or what ?

Thank you
