*Hi All,* *I am trying to study the failure **behavior** of a beam with three point bending using user defined element. I am applying load by using a loading cell with displacement control. I defined a contact surface in between top surface of the beam and bottom **surface** of the loading cell but loading cell is penetrating. * *I would be pleased to get some ideas to resolve this issue.* *Thanks and regards* *Surya*
