crow9350 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 (edited) I separated wires and FEM objects as much as possible and made point groups as various as possible. And I connected all corresponding each group to glue nodes. However, when I start a simulation, lines(edge) are generated between two points that did not exist. And they are detaching from glued FEM objects. Do you have any ideas or suggestions?

Atom Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 (edited) If you have attached your wires to fixed point numbers, you may be experiencing point jump when the source deforms. You might need to use a pointdeform node to lock them down, so they don't jump around. In this image, the left side is locked, while the right side jumps. (it does not have the point deform node). ap_point_deform_lockdown.hiplc Edited April 22, 2019 by Atom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I solved the issue, by making more specific groups. Before, I made one group of points for two separated points. After I make more specific groups, it's not happening again. Anyway, thank you very much. Edited April 22, 2019 by crow9350 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
