Do you know how to model fork support?

Do you think this is correctly modeled as fork support (picture)

Abaqus-Meshing Octagonal Part- Face Angle less than 45 degrees
I am modeling an octagonal foundation in Abaqus. The foundation is 3.1 m in height. By its geometry, foundation has got slopes with face angle less than 45 degrees. As a result, when I mesh my model, I get a warning which says that distorted elements have been detected. This is around 25% of total no of elements. How can I partition/seed, etc. to reduce the no of distorted elements? I cannot compromise on the geometry of foundation. Attached is the mesh photo and distorted elements are highlighted.
Lateral torsional buckling of I beams with restraint
Forums
I am looking to model buckling of I steel beams with restraint in abaqus. But I do not know how to make rigid connections between the steel members.
Why is the other beam( beam with fixed supports) not stressed? How do i define contact between the two beams.

Dear friends,
I am a beginner in using Abaqus. Now I am doing a project which calls for a simulation of the phase change probleme (two demensional Stephan problem).
I did a simple simulation with water, more prescisely a water slab of 10 C at the left I impose a temperature -10 C, so I got the results of the profils of temperature in every increment of time.
Multi-processor mode of ABAQUS VIEWER

Hi Everyone,
I am making an 3D RVE model for fiber reinforced composite. approximately there are 62500 elements in the model and there are 200 frames in the odb files (the odb size is around 3gb). When I try to open the file, it took me a very long time (approximately one hour) just to display the model in ABAQUS viewer, and when swithcing from one frame to the next frame, it took some time around 10 mins. And it is very not conveient at all. Currently I am using NVIDIA Quadro 5000 for my graphics card.

Hi, every body,
Why Abaqus give incorrect result in plane strain plasticity?!!
There is an incorrect result from Abaqus in plane strain plasticity simulation. In this short video, this result is shown.
It would be pleased if anybody have any idea about why this happen ?!!

Could anyone please help on how to deactivate the crack propagation capability?
Following section 10.7.1 in the User Guide of 6.13, the crack propagation capability can be deactivated in some step. But I tried it in a very simple example through CAE and input file, it does not work.
Particularly, the problems are
CutExtrude error Abaqus

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a full-scale truss for a static loading simulation using Abaqus.
I wanted to use a Python script to do this, but I am not very experienced with this language or the Abaqus methods.
The members forming the truss are cee sections. However, at the ends of the cee sections I want to create an extruded cut
like so:

However, when I try to use the CutExtrude command, Abaqus keeps giving me an "Invalid sketch plane" error even though I'm sure that the face I'm putting in the CutExtrude method is correct.
How to deform an existing mesh from CT measurements?
Hi all,
I would like to know if someone has a trick to deform a mesh generated in Abaqus thanks to Computer Tomography measurements ?
The file I received from CT is a .stl.
Do you know an open source software that can compute deviations between point clouds?
Thanks in advance for your support :-D
