Hello All,

I am trying to create a cantilever beam model that can only move in - or + x direction. I found a thread about this topic and tried to use CGAP element, however, I cannot figure it out.

Thank you.

    Hi @gchoi

     

    Beam will deform/move in the direction of the load applied.

     

    Can you share the link which has CGAP information?
