Hello,

I want to apply a displacement to two nodes. I checked the Prescribed Motion Node under the Boundary section, but I can only select one node in that card, and I cannot select a node set as well.

It is important for my test to apply the displacement directly to the two nodes rather than creating a rigid part and prescribing the displacement to the rigid part.So, I wanted to ask if there is another ways to do this.

Also, if Prescribed Motion Node is the only possible way to apply the displacement to two nodes, would it be okay to create one card for each node(two cards in total for loading)? If so, would the prescribed motions start applying at the same time?

Thank you for your help.

I am pretty sure you can create a set_node and use boundary_Prescribed_motion_set
