Hello,

here are the elastic strains (it is visible that the deformation increased which is a bit strange considering the load decrease) and materials documenting the change. I tried to inspect if the target-contact pairs are not reverse, but after I ran the simulation I did get the same results. The value for tangent modulus of 2000 MPa I got from YouTube, is that aproximately correct?

Before I changed the materials and decreased the loads:

Thanks for your reply!

Best regards,
