Hello everyone.
Im working on a project related to snowboard and its binding. I have created a model which can be seen below. Im analysing the behaviour while a snowboarder is riding on his heels and toes (force applied to the back or front of the binding). Thanks to the red and blue elements, whole binding can slightly rotate depending where we put our force. For instance when driving on heels, left green element will squize a bit). The whole point of that mechanism is that is enables a instant force transfer to the edge of a snowboard, allowing for better control. I am trying to show that on my analysis.
What boundary conditions and where should be applied to the model? I was thinking about applying Fixed Support on the bottom surface of snowboard, forces depending on analysed driving case, cylindical support on a blue pin and remote displacement on blue and red elements (displacement x y z=0 and free rotations). Also, Frictional contact for elements that are in contact with a snowboard. What are your thoughts on that?
Thanks in advance!
