Hi FEA way,
There are no contact constraints in this model. The hollow rod is connected to the plate in the back of the picture with a tie constraint on the touching surfaces to enable the transfer of the torque. Bearing A is realized with a reference point and kinematic coupling to the surface...
Hi guys,
I'm trying to get the correct bearing reaction forces from the simulation of a torque rod. There are two bearings. Bearing A fixes the part on the rotation axis but allows for rotation (roller bearing). Bearing B inhibits the roation (basically a connection to the ground). The torque...
