Hello Everyone,
Thank you for always helping out. I am trying to model a bullet impact, but when I run the simulation, the bullet is not moving at all.
What can I do? Is something wrong with my boundary condition?

Hard to say without knowing anything about the model but you should check the way you prescribe motion (usually initial velocity), step time settings, analysis progress (status file) and postprocessing settings (deformation scale factor, displayed frame, type of plot and so on).

I applied a wrong BC to the bullet in the wrong step!
