  • welding modelling between beams

    May i use ( connector > Rigid link ) relation for the modelling welding between beams or is there any other ways to modelling welding?
  • Display contact regions

    Is there a way to the regions for contact pairs in the viewport?
  • Why are my contact forces are still acting even when not visibly touching?

    I have a body pushing on a second body, using the contact force . The first body pushes on the second one and they separate; the second body is then not connected anything and when the contact has no friction the second body just drifts off at a constant…
  • Can I obtain resultant contact normal force?

    I am simulating an internal gear pair with the same number of teeth in rotation. I defined a cylindrical coordinate system for the internal gear and would like to export resultant contact normal forces and direction in each contacting node of the internal…
  • How to understand status of ongoing contact convergence?

    With a long-running linear contact analysis, how can I interpret the f06 output to get a feel for the progress of convergence?
  • Is there any fast tip to transform APEX glued connection to sliding contact?

    if I export a *.bdf file is there any quick script change to perform a Nastran analysis simply editing contact on a txt editor. Thank you all
  • I have two TET4 meshed solids from an assembly step file. How do I define the mating surfaces in "Loads/BC"? Is it "Create" - "Contact" - "Element Uniform" - "Deformable Body"? Or is it "Body Pair&q

    I have two TET4 meshed solids from an assembly step file. How do I define the mating surfaces in "Loads/BC"? Is it "Create" - "Contact" - "Element Uniform" - "Deformable Body"? Or is it "Body Pair"?
