Hello everyone,

I'm simulating a simplified bolt connection between two parts. I made the bolt without a thread, as it was done in most forum posts here. However, I do not have a bolt-nut connection, but I screw the bolt directly into a hole (the hole is also simplified without a thread).

What interactions do I have to make with the screw shaft and the hole? I tried it at the beginning with tie-constraints, but I got errors because there was an overlap with the bolts pre-tensioning. In addition, I tried contact, where I defined the tangential behavior as rough. Unfortunately, without success.

Any of you have an idea for this problem?

Thank you very much for your efforts!
