Hello,
i want to design a bearing. In this bearing is a bolt with a radial force. How can i realize the herzsche compression?
best regards
Bene
Hi BeMa86,
Do you want to apply pressure load radially on a bearing surface?
You can apply pressure load using equation. Here are the steps:
1) Create a cylindrical system using systems panel.
2) Assign all nodes to the newly created system and do a set reference
3) Go to analysis page> Pressure panel
4) Select the bearing elements
5) Change the input type to Equation and enter Equation= Cos(y)
6) Change the orientation to N1, N2 and N3 from Normal and right below it select the cylindrical system
7) Click Create
