Optistruct- HM 2017 - CNTNLSUB - Non-linear quasi-static

Hi,

 

i modelled two bars as seen in the picture. The blue one is at the left end and the yellow one on the right end fixed with constraints.
One force (1st_Force in green) is defined on the right end of the blue bar to the bottom and the other one (2nd_Force in orange) at
the left end of the yellow bar to the top. Additionally a contact have been modelled between the two bars.

 

 

Now i wanted to create two subcases. The first one (1st_Force as seen in the picture) should bend the blue bar against the yellow one. The second subcase should start with this initial bending position and bend the yellow bar to the top. So the CNTNLSUB box is checked and the first force is choiced as the SCID.
 

 

 

The problems are the following.

1. There aren´t any differences if i check the CNTNLSUB box in subcase two or not. The results in Hyperview are exactly the same.

2. The initial position of the second subcase isn´t the end position of the first subcase.

 

 

Thank you very much for helping.
