      Hi

      If you are using Explicit dynamics then we can not use beam connections (not supported hence greyed out).

      All the best

        yes im using explicit dynamcis

        so what can i do to solve this. 

        which  model is similiar with explicity dynamcis but can use the beam connections?

        (i want to give 100N impact to that top box part and show the devlection through that rod)

      Hi

      You could try and use Transient Structural.

      All the best
