REFERENCE POINT of analytical rigid surface, specialist in ABAQUS CAE Explicit contact, please help

Hello everybody,

I simulate the indentation test with ABAQUS CAE, the indenter is simulated as rigid body analytical surface. I also created reference point, but when i submit the job, there is a mistake:

 

The rigid part instance Part-2-1 is missing a reference point. Either assign a reference point to the corresponding part or include the entire part in a rigid body constraint.

I think i have done everything properly but it doesn't work. if you need i can send you my code.

I am looking forward to your answer.

 

best regards

DEar Babakp,

Thank you for the readiness to help. I have solve the problem myself putting one point as a part. So is very strange, I also have other problem with indentation, some problem with remeshing, it seems that it doesn't work. Do you have experience with this?

Best regards
