modellazione rope

[luca_t]

Hello everyone!
I ask all of you if you know how to shape a link like a rope (an element that does not react to compression and bending, but to traction) between two knots in abaqus (I actually start from hypermesh and then take off). to understand, what in ansys is the link 180.
