I am trying to re-run the Cosmos simulation I did for thread725-235947. Compared to my original simulation, I enlarged my screws, shrunk my flange down, and increased the external force. It is apparent from looking at my new stress plot that there is a substantial tensile force at the centre of my base which makes my results nonsense.
Is there a way to model accurately a clamped face? I am using a fixed restraint, which I believe produced sufficiently accurate results on my first model.
What I need to model is a face loaded in compression such that it will separate if it sees any tension force.
