We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Apply the following changes to the last model you archived above and you should get the same result I got.

  1. Delete the fixed end segment in SpaceClaim.
  2. Repair the Fixed Joint and attach it to the new vertex.
  3. Check that the Line body is still Truss/Link, it automatically reverts to Beam when you import the modified geometry.
  4. Edit the Displacement and change the two rows of Free to 0.
  5. Edit the Anaysis Settings and make step 1 have 100 Initial and Minimum substeps and 1000 Maximum Substeps.
