In Abaqus, how do I "tie" a reference point to a random position in a deformable surface, so that the ref. point moves due to the deformation?

I want to place some sensors on a 2D sample, but if possible, I want to avoid using partitions (to avoid increasing my mesh complexity, as my system is a bit slow). Also, I don't want to create...

Does anyone have reliable information to prepare a noninferiority trial?

Dear all, as you may know, in many clinical trials it is often not ethically acceptable to include a control group with no treatment. One option is to use a wait-list, but in many cases we end up...
