As per my understanding, I am going to consider the top and bottom face of the cylinder as a fixed one.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thank you,&nbsp;<br \/>Regards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-344614","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["53676","2887","341667"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.206.193.146"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["296"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["344614"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27792"],"_bbp_engagement":["2887","53676","341667"],"_bbp_voice_count":["3"],"_bbp_reply_count":["3"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["358253"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["358253"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-03-21 03:08:33"]},"test":"atifismailuregina-ca"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/344614","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":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/344614\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=344614"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
