I want to model 2D contact using Abaqus. I modeled two parts using shell and specify for each part solid, homogeneous section with thickness of 1 m (plane strain). I want to imply 0 up to 2000 N at the top of first part with rate of 20 N per second. How can I define such load in the Abaqus? How Can I see my results for specific loads? (For example 500 N, 1000 N, …) When I got results, my out of plane stress is zero. Why?
Yes, Aliasger Haiderali is right, when defined the time steps, Abacus will give you the results at the end of every step.
upper part is an indentor and the dimensions are 10 mm length and 3 mm width and down part is a hemisphere which is partitioned to two materials and the radius is 7 mm. Upper part is made of steel and down part is made of glass and epoxy. the real model for top part is an indentor with circle cross section of 5 mm and thickness of 3 mm.
You may either apply a uniform load and use the Amplitude (Smooth step for instance) OR you can define the "User-define" function and apply the load.
