      Draw a large solid cylinder as the first part.nDraw a flat rectangular plate as the second part. Position it on a centerline, interfering by the depth of the dent.nPull the edges of the flat rectangular plate to create the full radius blend.nCombine the cylinder and the radiused plate using a Cut operation to make the dent.nUse a Shell Operation to remove the circular end faces of the solid cylinder to get the finished solid part.nNote that the simulation might go faster if you do a midsurface model instead of a solid model.n

      Thank you Peteroznewman, I am using 2019 R3. I couldn't open your files. Can you change files? or you can send picture your geometry.nRegards.n

      Sketch a 100 mm circle and pull it out to a 100 mm cylinder.nAdd a center plane (optional, not needed) and sketch an 8 mm diameter circle on the edge of the cylinder.nPull the face 30 mm along the cylinder.nPull the circular edge to 4 mm radius.nUse the Shell button and pick the two end faces.nUse the Mirror button to add the other end of the part.nUse the Midsurface button on the Prepare Tabnn
