Pin Pressing simulation- Static or dynamic

[gopinathmY575P]

Hi Team, i need a documentation or tutorial link for pin pressing simulation it may be static or dynamic for the below case.

thank you in advance.

I'm not sure what your objectives are.. If you want to simulate the actual pin pressing process, I wouldn't start with a dynamic analysis. It is mainly a quasi-static nonlinear problem, since it involves contact, sliding, and above all geometric interference.

An explicit dynamic analysis would make sense if the insertion occurred very rapidly, for example by impact or hammering.

Hi! I believe this needs to be done in Dynamic Simulation environment. It is because the links are movable and they are not stationary.

Many thanks!

Noted. Any tutorial link to experiment that in Autodesk inventor?

Actually, its pin pressing application, which involves contact, sliding, and above all geometric interference. not exactly as you mentioned sir.

Your picture show pin bending.

Pressing will be pushing pin into the block.

don't forget to check for buckling.
