I want to extract the reaction forces from this hole, but I&rsquo;ve noticed that when I switch between the global and local coordinate systems, the total reaction force value appears to change. Given that this is a static structural analysis, I would expect the total value of the reaction force to remain constant, regardless of the coordinate system. Could anyone provide insight into why this discrepancy is occurring or suggest a method to ensure consistent results across coordinate systems?&lt;\/p&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-392332","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-coordinate-systems-2","topic-tag-force-reaction","topic-tag-static-structural"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_bbp_subscription":["438384","240","88","20905"],"_bbp_author_ip":["142.104.1.118"],"_btv_view_count":["298"],"_bbp_topic_status":["unanswered"],"_bbp_topic_id":["392332"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27791"],"_bbp_engagement":["88","240","20905","438384"],"_bbp_voice_count":["4"],"_bbp_reply_count":["11"],"_bbp_last_reply_id":["395592"],"_bbp_last_active_id":["395592"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["2024-11-27 22:53:46"]},"test":"e11fd405937ae2c3c05a88b903b61d638f7bfe61"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/392332","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\/392332\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/forum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=392332"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
