    Combined Displacement/Rotation BC?

    Wow, thanks FEA_way & Mustaine3 for the follow up (my first posts on this site, and your responses are very welcoming). I'm using an linear-elastic model to debug and once bugs are worked out I will use an elastic-perfectly-plastic set of Al-6063 T5 properties (E=10,000,000 psi; nu=0.33...

    Combined Displacement/Rotation BC?

    The plot is the deformed shape to scale. This is a static general analysis. My self-prescribed protocol was to try static with viscous damping then move onto dynamic implicit if there isn't success in my first attempts. My Reference points are currently kinematically coupled to the surfaces...

    Combined Displacement/Rotation BC?

    I'm looking for any suggestions on how to get this snap fit together. I can physically/experimentally do this with the 3D-printed equivalent; however, I'd like to scale and substitute materials beyond prototyping. I'm currently trying the following approximate path (43deg arc displacement of...
