Hi peteroznewman, Thank you for your help but Im still facing some issues, could you please give me a hand?
The analysis is currently with 9e-3s at end time giving enough time for the project to clash with frame (this is taking 25e-6s). Looking at the total deformation and equivalent stress It is shown some deformation of the frame but at the directional velocity of projectile there inst a big change. Going to Energy Summary and Energy conservation all curves are pretty much stable. Does this means the impact is not being read? Not sure what is the problem here.
Thank you!
