hai

i want to know how to make connectivity between two different meshes (3D).I already tried with gaps element.but i am not able to solve this model.its shows coordinate error again i specified coordinate system but still unable to solve.here i am using Radioss solver.

other thing is my model contain one shaft and two big discks. if i choose other methods to make connection by one node to another it takes more time because this discks have nearly 1000 nodes.

plz support me, through any other options.(like master nodes by one step then slave nodes by next step)

Regards

Arun

    You can try the following way...

    - go to 1D->spotweld

    - select 'using nodes', Option 'nodes-nodes'

    - select your element config and property (e.g. rigid)

    - choose your 'search tolerance'

    - select 'nodes' on the first side

    - select 'nodes' on the second side

    - create....
