Hello,
I am working on a research to simulate a drop test of a package box with ceramic saucer inside. I am not proficient in abaqus so I am looking for some suggestions.
Till now, I created a hollow box with 2 mm thickness to represent it as a cardboard box and a disc for a saucer. I have material properties for cardboard and saucer. Then I assembled the model in abaqus such that saucer is touching box at the bottom; this was initial condition.
At the time of fall, I am giving acceleration field to box. Then I have to give constraint to the saucer so that it will be inside the box. Then I am not able to think next steps especially how to simulate the condition of box hitting the
Please give me some suggestions or ideas on how to do this. Thanks.
