Dear all,
In the 3D plate, we can apply the surface film condition along the thickness plane. However, if we transform it into a 2D plate, we won’t be able to apply the same along the thickness plane (XY plane).
In Abaqus, can we apply the surface film condition to a 2D face? Is there a way to do this through skin elements or some other method?

Hello,
Generally, if your model is 2D, you can only apply surface film condition on edges. If you need to apply the surface film condition on a surface, you have to use a 3D model. the elements could be Shell or Solid. In your particular modeling, you have to use a 3D model and solid elements, and there are no other ways. I recommend you to refer to the following links. It’ll be worth it.
