What does it mean when I get the error: "Cannot process highlighted contacting surfaces. Source:Geometry" during an AutoGEM Mesh. Attached is a picture showing the error and the surfaces involved. I tried setting up the contact area as an interface and that did not correct the issue. Any ideas?
I took your advice and built the model using the beam idealization. It was faster and much easier to run the simulation. It took me some time to learn how to do it but it is easier.
The connections are all bolted. I am running the simulation using pin constraints at all the bolt holes just to see if I get a good mesh before I add the fasteners. Think that may be affecting the simulation?
