Kinematic Constraints
Hello everyone,
i need to set up a dynamic FEM Simulation in RADIOSS with several bodies. It's a mix of rigid and FE bodies. For jointing them, i want to use kinematic constraints but for me it's hard to find out how these kinematic constraints are set up correctly.
Is there a tutorial how to set up kinematic constraints in HyperMesh (with RADIOSS)? I'm also very glad for some advices.
Thanks.

Ok:
1. Create SPRING2N
2. Create /PROP/KJOINT type33 and select the desired type of joint
3. Relate SPRING2N to FE-Mesh or rigids
4. Create SKEWs for each point of the SPRING2N
5. Define /PROP/KJOINT with the SKEWs
6. Assign /PROP/KJOINT to SPRING2N
I'll try this and send a reply. Thanks, Prakash Pagadala.
Hi Lorenz,
You can constraint the bodies using BCs manager which is available in Utility browser.
Please refer to the RADIOSS tutorials for more information
