Hello, I want to simulate the following mechanism

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>slot.thumb.png.7fb8865b26c5544e8f4579351dc96c13.png

 

I need the orange pin to slide trhough  the green slot when the green slot moves due to other machanism movement.

 

This is the configuration of contact that I used: Nodes on the all arround the slot are the slave and all of the pin elements (membrane of a 3D) is the master.

And the results are these:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>finalframe.thumb.png.8ce75515832ec41f9abc85cd78898cca.png

 

what do you suggest i can do? What is wrong with my contact card, or what other approach do you suggest?

 

thank you for your itme.

    Hope you have defined PARAM LGDISP 1 for large displacement analysis. Could also share the .out file of the run?
