Hi,

 I'm trying to simulate a picture frame shear test using ABAQUS and I have landed up with some problems for which I haven't been able to find any solution from almost a week. Any help would be much appreciated!

So, here's the problem:

I have a fabric sheet of area 140mm x 140mm. The BC are as shown in the file bc.png.The bottom left corner is fixed and a displacement of UX = 40mm and UY = 40mm is applied on the top right corner node.
