hello,i have 2 parts that are 2 mm apart from each other, i can create a new component as adhesive to fill the gap in between, but i need it to connect as node to node connection between the 2 parts
how can i do it? any help will be appreciated.
Hi Sanjeev,
It depends a bit on your version and requirements, but this video may be helpful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNhbwhSjSGI
You could copy the faces of the two parts and then patch the edges of the gap to eventually make a new solid.
what solver are you using? OptiStruct?
If your mesh is aligned, you could use connectors to create node-to-node connection easily, using maybe CGAP elements or CBUSH elements.
It really depends on what kind of analysis you want to perform and what effects you want.
Contacts would make your like much easier as well.
