Abaqus contains an extensive library of elements that can model virtually any geometry. You may import geometry from a many different CAD software packages. Using Abaqus, you should be able to use various different material models to simulate the behavior

Glad to see that you are suspicious. Try a simple problem like a cantilever beam bending (2d or 3d). Instead of applying a concentrated force on a node, kinematically couple a few nodes on the free end to a reference point and apply the force at the ref p
