Hi,
I want to simulate the pump shaft,key and sleeve as an assembly to check for strength. The assembly is loaded with torsion and downthrust (axial load along the shaft axis)
I am defining contact between shaft & key, key & sleeve, etc.

My question is what boundary condition should i apply and where to apply on the parts ?

Please help.
