Hi All,
Im new to the Forums and signed up as I needed some help doing what I believe should be a simple simulation.

I was to measure the force reactions of the faces in X, T and Z direction to analyse cross torque.

My simulation is easy with fixed supports, however i was the faces to be spring supports in their relevant axis. i.e. for the 'X' face i want there to be a stiffness of 0.04mm/kg in the 'X' axis, but fixed in Y and Z.

here is this model (with fixed supports):
