Singularity Detected, FEA Study Fail

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,

 I've used FEA for single components but I need to study something that is made out of 3 parts, connected with bolts first time. Initially, I only specified the bolt head and nut locations. When I checked the DoF, 2 pieces were free. So I used the manual contact tool and specified the master and slave faces.

I tried bunch of things but the FEA won't run due to singularity issue. Everything seems connected. I do not see a complex weird geometry either. Could you help me out where I'm messing up, thanks!

Hi marbuy2,

1. Right Mouse Button (RMB) on the Simulation Study browser node
2. Check the "Remove rigid body nodes" option
3. Solve
4. It solves

Thanks

Best regards
