Dear All,
I have the following problem. I simulate an indentation in two steps. At first step the indenter penetrate to the material. At the second step it withdraws from it. The problem, at the second step force simply drops. What could be the reason? Incorrect boundary conditions, very soft behaviour of material??? Specialists, please help.
Best regards

Plz make sure that your have meshed the model
If it is a meshed model, then it will be a good idea to create the set in assembly module. Also you may click on the 'Show Native Mesh' menu icon(a meshed cube) before you proceed for creating the set.

Hello Asim, Thank you for
Hello Asim,
Thank you for the reply, i did everything what could be possible-it doesn't work. ABAQUS CAE only showed the geometry option, but not nodes. Then i created input file and open new database, import this *.inp file and it starts to work. But i still didn't understand what i did wrong? The colleaugue says it is ABAQUS bug.

Dear dasanchez,
I use ABAQUS version 6.7.1, i did both, i tried assembly and i try part, it didn't work untill i again import the input file.
