Contact modelling in Abaqus - Need urgent help
Dear all
I urgently need the answer to my question. I am modelling a clapping or contact between two surfaces similar to a crack.
I have used abaqus : 1-tangential : frictionless 2-Hard contact
I wanna know what moelling approach does abaqus use for above situation ?
Does abaqsu use hertzian contac ? bilinear stiffness or what ?
Thank you

Prager's Hardening Rule
Hi all
I am currently investigating Prager hardening room which is stated as the simplist linear kinematic hardening rule. I was wondering if anyone has worked with this model and if so if you have managed to identify how to determine the constant used for the back stress equation
dα =C * dεp ( this is epsilon dot p which is the equivalent plastic strain)
Please can you let me know how to determine the constant C from experimental results?
