I've been trying to create a connecting pin to plane model in Ansys 14.5 Workbench in transient structure. It is necessary to be a flexible structure because I want to use it in FSI simulation. I've created 2 joints. One fixed joint body-body between my plane and my pin. The second one is revolute joint to the ground. The cam has a revolute joint from the body to the ground. my load was just pressure on the plane. So for some reason the plane does not move as expected. The plane model seems to expand very largely. Before I make this more complicated I wanted to get this basic motion working first, but currently it seems to not operate as I expected.
