How to connect different solids in Hyperworks?
I´m working in a analysis of a assembly
constituted of different solids, and I don`t know how to connect themFind more posts tagged with
hi Guilherme,
what solver are you using?
In general, you could do that 2 ways:
- make sure your geometries are connected, thus your mesh will be created connected
- using tied contacts, defining a bonding between the different parts
for case #1, you might need this, under solid edit panel.
Olá Adriano,
Você poderia mostrar como faço tied contacts para um sólido? Eu só consigo definir conexões quando estou trabalhando com malha 2D e preciso conseguir fazer isso para malha 3D também
Obrigado

Hi Guilherme,
please take a look at this nice video, that shows, among other things, how to create contacts for solids using auto-contact tool in contact browser:

In your case, you can should contact type as TIE or as FREEZE.
