I am working on mechanical apdl and I want to apply a spring constant in moment in x (ROTX). I am adding this code to my model:
ET,3,COMBIN14
KEYOPT,3,1,1
KEYOPT,3,2,4
KEYOPT,3,3,1
R,1,Kxx, , , , , ,
RMORE, ,
N,500,0,0,-0.01 ! Extra node below the node in contact with the ground (node 1)
real,1
E,1,223
...
And when defining the boundary conditions:
D,1,UX,0,,,,UY,UZ, ROTY, ROTZ ! Fixing all the DOFs except ROTX
D,500,UX,0,,,,UY,UZ,ROTX,ROTY,ROTZ ! All DOFs fixed
Is there something missing? Thank you.
