Thanks for the quick response. This following how I setup the explicit dynamics module although I have tried a static structural with a load applied to the sleeve in the -y direction and the bottom face of the base fixed. The base is a rigid, fixed support body and the pipes are resting on...
I am trying to simulate a bending moment test on a pipe coupling assembly. I have attached a diagram of the moment test and also the assembly file. I am trying to model the test as accurately as possible, but encounter many errors when I think I am choosing the appropriate fixtures and...
Thanks for your time!

I am using Ansys 13 to run an explicit dynamic analysis on a pipe coupling assembly before the Hylon N10113sthl(nylon w/ 13% fiber) couplings are manufactured. Attached is a picture of the model and the assembly file(igs). There is a ram that displaces in the -y...
