What is the difference between SPC given on a component using the Rigid element (RBE2) and SPC directly given on the nodes? What exactly changes when the rigid element is involved while giving the boundary condition?

    Hi Aditya,

    Are you seeing any difference in both methods?

    According to me both the methods are correct. Just for convenience we create the rbe2 and constrain it.

    Thanks
