Contact Force in HyperMesh
Altair EmployeeHello,
I'm using HyperMesh and Abacus 3D Contact Solver in my project. This is a FEA Contact Simulations of two mating terminals, as shown below. Basically, terminal 1 will insert and withdraw during the mating process and terminal 2 was fixed at the right surfaces. I would like to plot the contact force between the two terminals during the insert/withdraw process. However, it is not available in HyperView. Can anyone help?

Thanks for your information.
I'm using HM 14.0 and Abaqus as solver. Now I found the options for output block that you showed using Abaqus Standard.3d template. But the problem is, when I change the template, the Card Image for General Contact was also changed and the model doesn't run.

Hi,
In the output block you can request for contact force.
