Im currently trying to determine the effective spring constant of the anti roll bar system for an FS car. However, when i apply a force to the control arm and thus creating torsion on the torsion bar it is exapnding by large amounts and i believe it is to do with my incorrect setup of the software.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ive added images showing the issue. I was wondering if it is me setting the software up wrong and if so where or if this is just a design issue which needs to be sorted. Ive tried uploading the files but couldnt find anywhere to upload them however ill upload an image of the all the settings i used. <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/30-03-2024-1711761096-Screenshot 2024-03-30 011123.png\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<p>Thanks in advance for any help \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/30-03-2024-1711760886-Screenshot 2024-03-30 010634.png\" alt=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/03\/30-03-2024-1711760921-Screenshot 2024-03-30 010734.png\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-359643","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["342535","240"],"_bbp_author_ip":["168.143.243.24"]," _bbp_last_reply_id":["0"]," _bbp_likes_count":["0"],"_btv_view_count":["445"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["359643"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["240","342535"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["359651"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["359651"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-03-30 11:58:52"]},"test":"charlie-rutherford11gmail-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/359643","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\/359643\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=359643"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
