Rigid Connections
Rigid Connections
(OP)
I am using beams with 1000X greater stiffness than my standard beams to model rigid connections. I have not had much success using the "rigid connections" feature in Pro/Mechanica. It won't let me make a rigid connection between a point in space and a surface. It says, "model not restrained properly". So I spider three of my extra-rigid beam elements from my point to three points on the surface. This seems to work fine, but any idea why the rigid conection feature is not working for me?
Thanks!
Thanks!
