Copying the hinge

First you will create an exact copy of the hinge piece.

  1. In the Model Tree, click mouse button 3 on Hinge-hole underneath the Parts container and select Copy from the menu that appears.

    Abaqus/CAE displays the Part Copy dialog box.

  2. In the text box in the Part Copy dialog box, type Hinge-solid, and click OK.

    Abaqus/CAE creates a copy of the hinge piece and names the copy Hinge-solid. The copy of the hinge piece includes the section from the original hinge piece.
