Thank you for the reply.

The thing is i want to analyze a simle lap joint with one rivet of 2mm shank that joins two metal plates of 215mm, 15mm, 2mm length, width , thickness repectively but i cannot validate it the stresses gets too high.

 

Secondly what if we define head to plate and tail to plate as bonded.
