I want to apply torque to a small protrusion from the component. But Solid elements don't have rotational degree of freedom. So how to apply the torque ( Torque needs to be applied on all the surface nodes of the curved area ).
Hi Ahilan,
Connect nodes of solid elements with RBE2 elements and apply torque to the independent node of the RBE2 element.

Ahilan,
Please see this 'What do you think' document on how to apply moments to solid elements,
It explains very clearly how and why to apply moments to solid elements,
Please see if you can solve all the what do you think series there and let us know what you think, thanks
