RBE3 when solving Fastener Pattern Force Hand Calc vs FEM
Hi SWComposites. So I revised the code and worked around the RBE3 requirement in ansys by adding an additional node #4 to break colinearity and got closer to the handbook solution. As expected that got me the a better load distribution among the two reaction points node 1 and node 2, where both...- ArturoMS

RBE3 when solving Fastener Pattern Force Hand Calc vs FEM
I am undergoing through a situation similar to the one discussed in thread2-478490. As hand calc results I obtained for a typical shear joint with eccentric loading cannot be recreated using non-rigid bodies in mechanical, I am now trying to follow the approach proposed in such thread. However...- ArturoMS
