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.

Hey,

I agree with mohan about the choice of frictionless support as ideally it should be the fixed support but if in case you still want to run it with frictionless support you can try it by turning weak springs on under analysis settings.

With weak springs on solver will apply a spring connection (very low stiffness) on the structure where it is free to move but in the end it is neccessary to probe force reaction with weak springs.

If that reaction force is too low as compared to the applied boundary condition. you can move forward with the results.

Regards,

Abhinav
