Hi All,

i am trying to rotate CBEAM elements about a fixed point and few other points (points that move with respect to the fixed point), the sample of the model is in the attachment.
i use follower force FORCE1 to rotate the model about the point.
there are few CBUSH1D to restrict the points about which the model rotates
The model starts to rotate but it either doesnt converges fully or it doesnt rotate about the fixed point(the bottom of the box translate than to rotate)
any help on this will be really good.

Thanks & Regards,
Bala
