I have used the same approach, but the rotation of the ref node still seems to not be...

I've created a beam in C3D8I elements which I want to load in pure bending,
therefore, I have created 2 ref nodes at both ends. I have coupled the ref
nodes to the end surfaces of the beam using Coupling constraint. When I...
