Hi everyone. I'm new to the forums here and pretty new to Ansys Workbench. I was hoping someone here could help me out. In doing an analysis involving a lot of bolted and riveted joints, I'm started to discover the nightmare of stress singularities resulting from fixed joint connections and fixed supports. I recognize that these are singularities and I'm going to end up calculating the stresses around the bolts by hand. But I would still like to know the peak stresses in the material. Is it possible to keep Ansys from reporting stresses within an element or two of a fixed support or connection?
Thanks!
Thanks!
