Hey there , 

Thanks for your helpful answers in my previous topic and i really appreciate it . Now i should make the torsion stiffness test on my monocoque sandwich structure but as its an stp assembly file i have problems with the meshes and the contacts so if i make a solid map mesh some errors occur (as it says that parts of the assembly can't accept solid meshing) and when i applied tetra mesh the load doesn't be distributed to the other parts of the assembly so whats your advice concerning the type of the mesh that is should be applied to  identify the contacts , i heard about RBE3 elements also but i don't find a tutorial on it and if it could be helpful in that case ?! 

Thanks

    yes can use RBE2 & RBE3 for load transfer.It would be nice if you could share snapshot of your model for better understanding.
