Spinning Modeling
Hi everybody,
I modeled a sheet metal forming process in which entire blank is partitioned into two regions (Central and exterior regions). Forming tool is considered as a 3D-Analytical rigid body (Revolved Shell) and partitioned into two regions too. According to this process, the head of punch should be tied to the central region of the blank and punch's walls should contact with exterior region.
In interaction module, I can’t select defined regions on forming tool separately as the surfaces and I don’t know why the whole surface of the punch is selected?
Also, the tool should travel along a curved path with obvious governed equation. How can i exert such a movement? Abaqus\Explicit is used.
Your helps would be appreciated.

I had much the same problem
I had much the same problem about a month ago, and eventually gave up. It was about as frustrating as watching weight loss camps for adults. Good luck.
hi,
hi,
I am trying to simulate convensional metal spinning process by abaqus.
Also am new to Abaqus, so please help me to solve metal spinning problem
