How to allow rotation of a pedal while its attachement is fixed using Abaqus solver

Altair Forum User

I am using ABAQUS solver preference and I need to know the way to model a pedal block where the pedal is attached to a block. This block is fixed while the pedal is allowed rotation. 

 

Give me a way to model this problem.

Hi,

We have some tutorials on HyperMesh-Abaqus solver interface. Please refer them for more understanding. 

 

We can only support for Altair solver related queries. I recommend to contact the Abaqus support team.

But as a general remark, I think you can try simulating this by modelling a revolute joint. Please watch this webinar https://altairuniversity.com/learning-library/10-procedure-to-create-kjoint2-in-radioss/ which is a similar example modeled in Altair RADIOSS solver.
