Hi everybody,

I am working on ansys workbench where I am doing a static structural analysis, made of a beam with a scale on it and an advancing indenter.

I don't understand why the scale inflects even before contact with indenter

What is the connection between your scale and the base rectangle ? Are you using the Lagrange multipliers for contact? nIt will help if you can show you contact settings , connections and boundary conditions. n

nThere was a little bug.n I worked with large deformation ON, so I decided to turn OFF generate the solution and then refresh with ON.nThat's all.nThanks a lot, anyway.nn
