Abaqus/CAE Usage Load module: Create Boundary Condition: Step: Initial Using the direct format You can choose to enter the degrees of freedom to be constrained directly. Input File Usage Either a single degree of freedom or the first and last of a range of degrees of freedom can be specified.
So if you define a cylindrical coordinate system, at a particular point U2 = tangential displacement, UR3 = rotation about local "z" axis (axis that runs throught the point of interest and is parallel to the cylindrical coordinate system axis).
How do i use spatial displacement of nodes as displacement values in Abaqus? I obtained the nodal displacement values of (u1,u2,u3) from a bar in an analysis. I want to use these spatialAbaqus ignores them. If your model is anything similar to figure 3.10 (your attachments), then the boundary conditions at the bottom edge are U1=0, U2=0 and U3=0 ( your Y axis is vertical). All KO70v.
