Hi there,
I'm stuck in a Femap model. I modelled a section of a connection of two flanges, connected to each other by a pre-loaded bolt. Symmetry is applied to simulate a full model. In the pre-loaded model, i want to apply an internal pressure load. I tried to do this with a restart command, but i can't get it to work.
Is there an option to calculate the two steps (preload followed by a pressure load) in one sequence?
