Too large deformation

    • Erik Brendel

      Hello,

      I need a guess why the deformation is about 2,20 m. Any guesses?

      Thanks in advance!

      Under Analysis Settings, do you have Large Deflection turned on?

      Is there any contact in the model?  Did you insert a Contact Tool under the Connections folder and Generate Initial Contact Status?

      It's more informative to display Directional Deformation for clues as to what is going on. It's also helpful to display the deformed geometry to get a sense of what this displacement looks like.  Perhaps there isn't continuity between the colored portion of the model and the adjacent blue region.
