How to create a virtual rod connection in Simsolid.
I am following tutorial SS-T-2090 to set up the virtual rod and want to apply a pre-tension force to the rod. However, I am currently unable to apply it, as the system prompts that the load point at one end of the rod can only be a single point. I selected the load point mode as the cylindrical surface.

The values do not agree with the theory.
I'm running a simulation of a Shigley problem where the connections are bolted and the force values aren't the same, and the simulation is giving me an error; it's not converging. What could be wrong? Can you help me, please? https://us.v-cdn.net/6038102/uploads/7P61P33UHKDK/simulation-2.rar

エラーメッセージ"連立方程式を解くことができません"について
1か月前SimSolid2025で解析を開始しようとして、"数値的不安定性を引き起こす可能性のある剛体運動を発生させる場合があります"と警告が出たものの、結果がでました。 昨日、試しにその設計スタディをコピーして解析をしたところ、警告は同じように表示されますが、"連立方程式を解くことができません(パス1、ステータス18)。構造が十分に拘束されていない可能性があります"とエラーメッセージが出て計算できませんでした。 同じモデル、荷重条件、拘束条件なのになぜエラーメッセージが出たのか判りません。原因をご存知の方教えてください。
