Hi  Subashni look forward to hearing what they say.

 

Further to this if I have a symmetry plane that is going through a bolt as in image below, I see larger forces than I would expect. 

 

Is there any thing you would suggest in this use case or is just you wouldn't suggest using symmetry planes through a bolted area?

 

 

No Symmetry plane
