I am going through an Inertia Relief Analysis of a spring, where spring being the main component and a plate lies on the top of the spring.
But when the load is applied on the plate, that load is not transferred to the spring and hence there is no displacement on the spring.
What steps should I follow to transfer the applied load on the plate to the spring?

    quick questions:

    - the spring and plate are free in space? what are your trying to represent, physically?

    - are you 100% sure your spring is attached to your plate? (sharing nodes)

     

    please share a couple images of your model and what physically you are trying to represent.
