Hi everyone,

        I'm new to radioss. I'm trying to solve an drop test analysis in radios.I have solved this by making a 0.1 mm thickness pad as rigid wall. Nut i could not get reaction force or impact load as result. somewhere in this forum i have read that creating rigidwall using RWALL gives reaction forces on the wall. So i want to ask 2 questions listed them below. Kindly answer them in any way you can. Any help is appreciated  image/emoticons/default_smile.png' alt=':)' srcset='/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x' width='20' height='20'>

1) Is there some way that i can get reaction forces for the current setup ( pad 0.1 mm as rigidwall) ? if yes, please be kind and let me know how i can do that.

2) If rigidwall (RWALL) is good option, hoiw do I create it?

 

if any of you have any study material or link that you can share, please do. I'm in trouble with this one.

    Hi Aksh191,

     

    You can create Rigid walls using Rigid wall panel in Analysis page.

     

    TH/RWALL will output time history data. TH/RWALL can output normal and tangential forces.

     

    Goto Analysis page>> Rigid Wall to create rigid wall.

     

    Goto Analysis page>> output blocks>> Groups and click create. card edit the same and change the keyword to RWALL from INTER in the card
