Good evening,
I am simulation 3pt bending test. I physically model the steel rod, and defining contact card between the substrate surface and rod.
Not sure why it is penetrating.
Also, I am modeling the laminated composite as a 2D shell element? Is there a way to visualize it in 3D during the post processing?
Especially the stress result?
Thanks,
Jerome.
