Reply To: Rigid Dynamics – Forces on revolute joint

Hi Peter, thank you for the help. Please find the .wbpz file at the following link with mesh and results removed. Please let me know if you cannot access this file, it is on Google Drive. ANSYS version 2023 R1.

I tried rotational velocity and rotation for the joints in Rigid dynamics, it works well and gives same results for joint forces. However, as explained earlier, in Static Structural Rotational Velocity or Acceleration for the Joint Load gives error.

If there is some way to get both revolute joints same load in Rigid Dynamics it will be good as several velocity and acceleration changes can be studied quickly.

Thank you.
