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.

When i apply cyclic loading, ie displacment with a tabular data which has time and displacement in mm, the model shows zero deflection. When i apply force alone it shows defelection, but when displacement for cyclic 

loading is also applied it shows zero deflection.Here i have applied both force and displacement on  the two rectangular sections, butat the same time when load is applied all over the face and displacement just over the small section it is the only case when deflection is shown.
