The application (refer attached picture) requires a point mass in space to be connected to the structure using appropriate connection type which would transfer Force & Moment to appropriate surfaces on the structure.
Issue faced: A single weighted link was used to connect the highlighted faces (with default degree of Freedom), the vertical forces (Y Component / Gravity) getting transferred to the Face #2 and inducing more strain / stress and the Face #1 is undisturbed.
Desired Solution: I like to know the the right modeling method that would transfer the Vertical Force component to Face #1 and the Moment (caused by the offset load) to get transferred on Face #2.
Appreciate inputs for the correct modeling approach to this problem.
Thanks,
Brabu
