0 Thickness Cohesive Zone Modeling

Submitted by henryjamesusa on

Hi friends:

This is Henry, a graduate student in USA.

I am recently trying to model a 0 thickness cohesive zone with curvature and I realize that by using mesh edit.

When I made it and submit the job, the ABAQUS always told me the node numbering has a problem and thus abort the job.

Does anyone who has experience with that?

Thanks.

Henry.

it is possible to make o thickness cohesive element. but, you should be careful with the thickness direction, all of the cohesive elements should have same thickness direction.
