@ justkeepgiviner - Thanks a lot for the help
Actually the thing is I am not sure about the normal (axial) and shear (transverse) stiffness values that I have to put when defining elastic support.
Any ideas on how to find them the right way?
I calculated using this formula: k=AE/L and I get...
Hi guys,
I am doing FEM analysis of a rigid chain scissor lift.
My question is how to present the chains? May be as an elastic support with a certain stiffness?
Thanks
