I'm looking for any suggestions on how to get this snap fit together.
I can physically/experimentally do this with the 3D-printed equivalent; however, I'd like to scale and substitute materials beyond prototyping.
I'm currently trying the following approximate path (43deg arc displacement of left hook *Black*-below & in-place Amplitude UR3 of right hook to ease entry of left hook *Red*-below (Step-Time:0,0.5,1; Amp:0,1,0; Rotation-Amp:2deg). Any force-based suggestions?
The analysis currently terminates 6ksi short of yield (21ksi):
I'm not necessarily looking for suggestions on analysis methods on the "snap" portion. I plan to use viscous dissipation or dynamic implicit methods to accomplish this.
