Hi,

I want to calculate the stresses generated at the Bolt connections (between the flange of the valve and the pipe) due the internal pressure of the fluid in a valve.

Is there a way by which we can avoid creating the flange of the pipeline and create a virtual wall to constrain the bolts?

Thnx!
