I designed a small part (chain) for 3d printing with thermoplastic polyurethane. Later tis part will be stretched and the developed reactive force is my main interest. One ring is fixed and on the other, a linear force is applied following the line of the middle part. I managed to configure already custom material properties.
CAD-construction was no problem, but when applying a force in the simulation module the chain bends to one side and is not stretched as expected. What did I do wrong??
Thank your for the help! it works - what was my mistake? as my last question for now... i see there is a small rectangle new at the side where the force is acting.
thank you very much for your effort to help me. I am not so experienced with Fusion360 FEM and CAD is far away from my studied profession. However, your solution seems to fix the problem quite quickly (I guess?).
"properly defined" means something went wrong from 2D sketch to 3D shape. I constructed one rectangle and two circles at the edges, I marked the sketch, and extruded it. Then I placed I drill hole (? my Fusion user interface is in German...). Sorry for this basic question.
