How can a problem of a 2d solid axisymmetric model of threads in contact can be solved (how the contact is defined and what Nastran solution is more suitable)?
Dear MIhaela,
The contact problems of bolt threads is very complex, don't think that is easy, and is not axisymmetric in nature, not silly at all, do not get confused.
In my blog of Simcenter FEMAP & NASTRAN I explain the capabilities of the Simcenter NASTRAN Multi-Step Nonlinear modules (SOL401/402), is impressing!!
