How to model a stitch (thread)

Hi All,

I am simulating a component which has been stitched. I am a new user to RADIOSS and I would like to know if any one has an idea how to model this. I found an option called Hemming in RADIOSS, will this work?

Hi Ushay,

Can you please elaborate more on this?.
I think this can be done using connectors. I'm attaching a document on the same which explains various connectors available in RADIOSS.

Also, please go through this webinar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HdECgBC_lM&list=PLQ7KUGFuVz4u5y3SvIEIU07427-gATaG6 which shows creating connectors in RADIOSS.

Hi George,

thanks for the document and link.

Actually I need to simulate the tear behavior of the car seat cover. So I want to model a set cover with the thread connections, wherever the seat cover is stitched. I really don't have an idea how to represent this stitch connection.

Thanks in advance

Hi Ushay,

I think you can try with the connectors, which will create connections between link entities.
