How to design 3 point bending test in Altair Edem? I simulated the fiber but can't set rigid support at two ends.

Hi Shajid,

You can use the 'fixed velocity' option in EDEM.  You would have to create a specific particle type and apply the fixed velocity, this will then take the velocity you assign in the factory (i.e. 0 m/s) and then always apply that to the specific particle type regardless of the forces.

 

This is discussed in this post:

How to fix the velocity of selected particles
