I don&acute;t know if ansys has any mode to simulate de force this jolt generates in the area of the other bodies not usin pretension force, because it doesn&acute;t have it in reality.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/09\/26-09-2024-1727354740-mceclip0.png\" \/>&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp; 2. The issue with the contact area is that i dont really understand wich one i have to use in this case. I,ve used &#8220;Bonded&#8221; for de head and body of the jolt with the low body. For the upper body i,ve used frictionless because is a trough hole. I also dont understand very well which face is contac and wich one target but this may be a conversation for other day.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, if anyone knows what type of contact use for this please let me know.&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Aitor&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-387154","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-ansyscontact-1","topic-tag-bolt-pretension","topic-tag-bonded-contact","topic-tag-contact-target-1"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["461635","58821"],"_bbp_author_ip":["31.4.135.81"],"_btv_view_count":["388"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["387154"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["58821","461635"],"_bbp_voice_count":["2"],"_bbp_reply_count":["1"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["387157"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["387157"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-09-26 13:02:37"]},"test":"gambra77gmail-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/387154","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\/387154\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=387154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
