Hi,
I am modelling installation (Jacking) of concrete pile (rigid body) in soil (Eulerian soil) which involves large deformations.
For jacked pile contact friction is considered as zero.
Inorder to cope up with large deformation which occur during pile penetration process kinematic contact fomulation is used, this formulation is based of master-slave principle implemented in ABAQUS.
When I run the analysis i am encountering with following error:
CONTACT INCLUSIONS, ALL EXTERIOR has been used or a blank first
surface name was specified under *CONTACT INCLUSIONS or *CONTACT
EXCLUSIONS, but the model does not contain any 3D elements from
which the contact domain can be constructed.
What may be the reason for this error, plz give the need ful suggestion.
Thank You in advance
Note: Pile body is modelled as Analytical Rigid and soil as Eulerian material.
