Hello,

I have 2 queries , 

A. I want to simulate the 2D model of rotor and shaft in optistruct.

1. Both are PSHELL (2D)

2. rotor and shaft needs to have friction contact

3. RFORCE for given RPM.

i have defined the friction contact but the rotor flies away in results. when i change it to tie it gives correct animation. 

 

B. I want to define pressfit between rotor and shaft (both2D). 

 

Please let me know if you can help

 

Thank you,

Vrunda
