Contact Pressurwe

mpvnaresh

Hi I am running a nonlinear Quasistatic Analysis which includes contacts , The contacts are having sharp corners .

During post processing , I observed for all the load increments the contact pressures  are Zero.At the last load increment the contact pressures are appearing.

What might be the problem.

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

use NLOUT to output incremental results.
