Hi

I know this has been asked before but the link is not opening

I am trying to deform a thin plate in contact with a cube using pressure

But when I go to BC Manager it asks for a surface set.. Can anyone help me how to make that? I cant seem to do that

The red part in the image uploaded is to be pressurized. And will the contact here be type7? [the bodies are in contact initially and the green one is fixed at the rear]

Kindly help

    Could you tell me which kind of contact am I supposed to use in this ????? Type 7 ? And i am following the tutorial of impact of pipes for this. How different will this be?

    when i use type 7, i get the following error. I check for penetration. the elements which are in contact come up

    What to do?

    Hi Anssharm,

    Please find a video capture which shows applying a pressure load: http://screencast.com/t/nmwXkyH0sp1a

    You can use de penetration tool in HyperCrash to sort out this penetration error.
