How to connect Solid and Shell mesh in the assembly shown below?


Hi,
please how to connect Solid and Shell mesh in the assembly shown below with RBE3 ?
when i start analysis it shown that it was an error


thank you for your reply
yes, the reason for using RBE3 is that is the bolt connexion


Looks like the RBE3 independent nodes are connected to solid elements (which don't have rotational DoFs)
You can either edit the RBE3 and release the independent nodes DoFs in RBE3 panel>> Update


thank you very mush
please how can i access in this window ?


Go to 1D panel>> RBE3>> Update>> Dofs
Please note that you need to select each and every independent node of RBE3




But HM should automatically take care of rbe3 Independent Dofs for solids.
Is it possible to share the model file?
