Hello!


Is there a way to model a compression only spring / element in optistruct? I want to use these elements to replace the rolling elements of a simplified bearing.

 

Many thanks in advance.

    Hi Max,

     

    Maybe you have to use non linear spring. Refer to PBUSHT property for more information.
