Specify the main characteristics of the surface on this tab. Depending on which Abaqus template you have loaded (Standard3D, Standard2D, or Explicit), you can create surfaces defined by segments, cylinders, or revolutions.

The Standard3D template enables you to define rigid surfaces of type REVOLUTION and CYLINDER.
The Standard2D template enables you to define surfaces of type SEGMENTS.
The Explicit template enables you to define all three types: REVOLUTION, CYLINDER, and SEGMENTS.

 

You can define the line segments in three different ways – by picking nodes, by picking existing lines, or by manually entering the coordinate values. The options on the Define tab vary according to the type selected. Refer to the following topics for details:

SEGMENTS

CYLINDER

REVOLUTION
