Hi All,

I am trying to simulate the rollover of the structure of a coach with ANSYS 19.0.
I gave the structure a rotational velocity (and gravity) towards the ground, but somehow by making contact it gets 'stuck' on the surface. Even after simulating longer it stays there.
When I include point masses to the structur I also get energy errors.
Do you have any idea what causes this problems?
