Simple ABAQUS beam contact problem (errors)

Submitted by PJtree23 on

Hello,

 

Just started ABAQUS last week.  How can I model to beam that contact
each other?  They just seem to go through each other, and when I define
interaction contraints as "ridgid" bodies the I get several errors.

 

Does anyone have a link or a copy of a tutorial I could go through showning exactly how to run a contact element case?

 

Thanks,

PJ
