SOFiSTiK Forum

hello

i work on my Bachelors degree and would like to see a sample for the CONT Function=Function of dyna for moving load on a concrete floor.
Please let me know if there is an example for such a function.

Thank you!
respectfully,
K.S.

Hi,

Here is a small example (SOFiSTiK 2012) of the load moving over the QUAD-elements ( I assume this is what you need). Critical part is the definition of the sequence of contact nodes (stored in EDGE). In this case since the mesh is regular, the approach is straightforward. If you have an irregular mesh, you will probably need to define the load path using the sequence of hanging nodes.
