Does number of faces in constraints affects the simulation. I ran three different simulation with keeping everything the same except the number faces I chose for structural constraints (Fixed ) .
1 Body is to be fixed and other body has 49 Newton of force towards it
Scenario A: With 27 faces in constraints and 2.5 kg of force (49 Newton) , the other part displaced 8 mm .
Scenario B: With 8 faces in constraints and 2.5 kg of force (49 Newton) , the other part displaced .001 mm
Scenario C: With 68 faces in constraints and 2.5 kg of force (49 Newton) , the other part displaced .16mm
Also the stress level and safety factors changed
how is that possible? number of faces in structural constraints should not affect the end result as they are fixed. Whether there are 27 faces fixed or 8 or even 68 faces fixed , the end result should be the same
