Elastic deformation and Force analysis

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi, I'm really new user. I'm trying to solve Elastic deformation of Elastomer which is pushing solid material as well as Force which is applied to solid material by elastomer. So, I set 'Prescribed Displacement' with top surface of Elastomer and prescribed displacement of 10 um toward Z-direction. As well, I set 'Fixed Constraint' woth bottom of solid material. For simulation, I did parametric sweep using 'range(0, 4, 10)' with um unit. However, solurion displays the amount of displacement for Top surface of Elastomer greater than 20 um. I understand it is not easy to say without what I set and ran. However, it might be great help if you guide me any possibility. Thanks.

Hello Sunglin,

When you say "solurion displays the amount of displacement for Top surface of Elastomer greater than 20 um", are you accounting for the scaling applied to the deformations in the plot? See my post in this other thread.
