Hi

See our courses in contact for a general overview.

In your case make sure you have many substeps (https://www.padtinc.com/2011/11/08/you-dont-wanna-step-to-this-breaking-down-loadsteps-and-substeps-in-ansys-mechanical/),

large deflections on,

and pinbal region is large enough (see here for info: https://www.padtinc.com/2015/11/09/be-a-pinball-wizard-with-contact-regions-in-ansys-mechanical/).

Also set displacement scale factor=1.

 

All the best

Erik
