How to constraint 6DOF for a surface in a Flexible body (MNF)?

Abbas Shafiee
I have generated an MNF file in Abaqus and a node of a surface is fixed and the node is MPC beam constraint to the target surface. My FEA results are correct and the surface tied to the node is fixed as expected. 
 
Now the MNF file with these BCs is generated and imported to Adams. Now I want to compare deformation from Adams and Abaqus. They are totally different even though the surface was fixed in ABAQUS and had zero displacements, it has displacement in ADAMS. Please look at the following image for more information and please help me out with what causes this issue.

    Hello, 
     
    Thank you Alexis. Fortunately, I am modeling only a flex body and the bottom surface of flex body is fixed to the ground and a force is applied to the flex body (as shown in the pictures above). very simple model. The end goal is to scale the deformation to have a better visualization for the model where the deformation for the flex body is in order of micron and there I also see the same scaling issue. But Hopefully, your link can help me for better visualization of my results. 
     
    Appreciate it!
