Hello;

I need help, i'm trying to apply a torque to a rigid body (surface 2D in a 3D analisys) in a contact analisys. I define two control nodes. In the first node i constrain the displacent (DOF's 1,2 and 3) and in the second node i apply a moment and i define an axis of rotation. But.......... the solution is no displacement and no stress... nothing!. I've done everything but i don't find how can i simulate a torque (in an axis) in a rigid body.

Thank you.
