"Joints" in Static linear
Altair EmployeeHi all,
I'm trying to run a modal analysis of a transmission. Being the first time I use Optistruct for this kind of analysis I've started with a simple case of a cylindrical gear fixed over a shaft, just in order to understand how the analysis must be configured. I would like to connect the gear over the shaft leaving free the axial movement, all other DoF must be fixed. I've created two RBE2 elements (one on the outer surface of the shaft and one on the inner surface of the gear). Now I want to connect this two element leaving free the Dof1, can someone explain me how to procede? Thanks!

Maybe, use revolution joint to connect 2 rbes?

It works in Static linear or Modal Analysis? I read that they work only in Motion analysis or in Non linear...
