Can we release one rotational degree of freedom in contact analysis in creo simulate. When i tried giving a specified rotation to a cylindrical part but got a warning saying "you constrained rotational DOF for an entity that does not have rotational DOF". How shall we give a specified rotation to a part and do contact analysis on it? Can anyone throw some light on this. Thanks is advance for the replies
Solved! Go to Solution.
You probably need to use a rigid (or weighted) link to connect the rotating point to your solid geometry.
Enforced displacement, tangential direction, more than 1 revolution

Thanks for your reply Jonathan Hodgson.
Could you tell me the procedure in which we can do this. Coz I come across warning saying "The geometrical references may be in conflict with another constraint or dependent side of rigid/weighted link."
A warning is just a warning, not an error - this quite often occurs. Just review your results carefully to make sure that the model is behaving as you expect (which you should always do, anyway!).
