Strange behavior when moment is applied

Hello everyone,

 

I've performed a non-linear quasi-static with seven components. I applied a moment in the middle component that transfer the load to the others gears. The behavior of others component are according to the expectations. But when I assign 20% of scale in deformation (in order to see the animation) the middle component has a strange behavior. Someone knows why does it happen? Follow the pictures before and after assigned the scale.

 

Thanks in advance.

Henry

    Hi @Henry26

     

    Is it a large displacement analysis which you performed?

     

    Can you share the animation file, please?
