I calculate the total stress but I am also interested to calculate the total force required for that displacement. I have a geometry with 3 layers, with some surfaces having bonded contact.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In other words, I specifiy the displacement (of 3 micron in my case) on the top surface and a certain force on the bottom surface of the top layer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now I want to calculate how much will be the force will be required to cause that displacement ( so how much force will be needed to lift that membrane to 3 micron)?? Is the reaction force the correct way to do this?<\/p>\n<p>So using reaction force on the same face as the displacement? Or is there another way for this??<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Please help!<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"wp-colorbox-image cboxElement\" href=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/01\/11-01-2024-1704934512-mceclip1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/01\/11-01-2024-1704934512-mceclip1.png\"><\/a><a class=\"wp-colorbox-image cboxElement\" href=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/01\/11-01-2024-1704934416-mceclip0.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/01\/11-01-2024-1704934416-mceclip0.png\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-344093","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry","topic-tag-ansysworkbench-ansys-staticstructural","topic-tag-force-reaction","topic-tag-structure"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["56386","13927"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.52.43.81"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["2660"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_edit_lock":["1704935036:122488"],"_bbp_topic_id":["344093"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["13927","56386"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["344243"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["344243"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-01-11 12:19:31"]},"test":"s-agarwal-1student-tudelft-nl"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/344093","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/344093\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":344095,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/344093\/revisions\/344095"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=344093"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
