Subject: Axisemmtric Indentation problem
Author: Xiao Gong

Hi all,
I have encountered two strang things in an axisymmetric ball indentation
problem. First, the stress plot skewed up when I do a symmetric expansion.
Second, all my reaction forces at the constraint, displacement applied nodes
are zero. Does anyone see this similar "features" before? What is the work
around?
Thanks.
