I need help on how to extract all nodes on the contact surface (master nodes) and their corresponding contact output into my .dat file. I used this command *CONTACT PRINT, SLAVE= F1DX, MASTER=D1FX, FREQUENCY=20
*CONTACT FILE, SLAVE= F1DX, MASTER=D1FX, FREQUENCY=20 but Abaqus gives me nodes which are not on the contact surface. More importantly, the output .dat nodes are not found in my meshed nodes. The nodes start from 1837 to 1887, however the nodes on my contact surface (master) start from 1786 to 1836.
Dear Kingsford Koranteng,
take into account the next information in *.dat file:
Surfaces:
GLOBAL TO LOCAL NODE AND ELEMENT MAPS
Global Local
node node
number number
..............................................................
1835 1835 DISC-1
1836 1836 DISC-1
1837 1 FRICTION-DISC-1
1838 2 FRICTION-DISC-1
............................................................
Victor J. Аdlucky Thank you so much.This means that the CPRESS in the .dat file is for the FRICTION-DISC-1 . Please how do i get for the DISC-1 instead of the FRICTION-DISC-1 .
*CONTACT PRINT, SLAVE= F1DX, MASTER=D1FX, FREQUENCY=20
*CONTACT FILE, SLAVE= F1DX, MASTER=D1FX, FREQUENCY=20
*CONTACT PRINT, MASTER=D1FX, SLAVE= F1DX, FREQUENCY=20
*CONTACT FILE, MASTER=D1FX ,SLAVE= F1DX, FREQUENCY=20
I tried this combination but i still get for the same global nodes 1837 which is for the FRICTION-DISC-1 .How do i get for DISC-1?
Try to change slave and master surfaces. But I think that results will be the same.
