This is a new Snap-Fit Analysis that I performed. Attached there are two presentations that showcase the parameters needed to set-up such simulations. There is the Non-Linear models, as well as the Non-Linear Transient model. Both of these simulations run with an implicit approach.

Below I provide some useful screenshots for everyone to understand exactly what a Snap-Fit simulation is.

Hopefully it will help many people with the selection of proper parameters (Solver and Contact wise).
