Hi,

is there any problem in using rbe 3 and rwall in the same model? The system  having shell elements, rbe 3 , rbe 2 etc. ,is not facing any impact with rwall. and just goes oninto it without energy absorption.

Kindly let me know about this.

    Hi Gopal,

    There are no such issues. Please make sure that the normal vector of the rwall is in the correct direction and slave nodes are also added.

    If you still face issues, please share the model via the secure dropbox.

    Hi,

    Also is there any effect in terms of mass variation when we use MADV -0 element on the master node of rbe 3 element. or any other effects due to this type of modelling.
