Circle on the soil

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,

I'm working on a project and I want first to simulate the impact of a cylinder on the soil.
I've realized a very simple model in 2D (circle on rectangle) with a point load at the top of the circle.

In spite of the simplicity of my simulation, I think I have some issues...

My circle is sinking on the soil but I doesn't see any stress on the soil... Strange ?!?

You will find attached my model.

Thanks for everyone who will be able to help me, and other too !


(sorry for my english... I'm french)

PS : I've already realized an example on COMSOL website "Cylinder Roller in Contact: A Benchmark Study Model ID : 1431"

Antoine
