Is the model fully axisymmetric?  If so, you should do a 2D axisymmetric analysis, it will be much faster to get an accurate result.<br \/>\nIf it is axisymmetric, but you want to stay in 3D, take another slice at 90 degrees and do a 1\/4 symmetry model. That way you can put symmetry boundary conditions on both planes which will constrain 5 DOF on each body. All you need to prevent a pivot error is to constrain one vertex (or node) in one direction, the axis direction, on each body.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-201394","reply","type-reply","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies\/201394","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reply"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/replies\/201394\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=201394"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
