Connectors

(OP)
Hi,

I am having difficulty in using connectors. I have a beam where the load is being applied at two locations. I am trying to model such that load can be applied only at one location rather than two locations on the beam. I have attached a picture. I am trying to apply a single load on RP-3 rather than at two locations on RP which is at the center and the end of the beam. But my model doesn't converge. I am not sure if I am applying connectors correctly or not. Any advice on how to model this will be helpful.


Thank you

RE: Connectors

You can't expect help with those information. Is the solid in the final model too? How hare solid and connectors connected. What are the boundary conditions? etc.
