Hi! <\/p>\n

I’m trying to make the contraction of this (flexible) pill-structure with two symmetrical plins (rigid bodies).
To generate the contraction I’m imposing an ambient temperature of 0 and applying a temperature decrease from 0 to -T_final.
The problem I am having is at the joining line of the structure\/geometry. Although I have inserted a bounded contact between the geometries, I seem to see inconsistencies in the connection line up to a separation of the parts.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

First stress distribution:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Final stress: <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

How could i solve this problem?<\/p>\n

Thank you,<\/p>\n
