Hi I have connected a shell interface to a solid by matching their prescribed displacement. But now, I dont know how to link their rotation too?..Any suggestion?

Thanks!

Hi,

Use the Solid-Shell Connection multiphysics coupling.

Check out this example:

Hi Henrik,

Thanks for your reply. I used the solid-shell connection. However, I encountered a problem. When I load the whole system (solid and shell), the connected boundaries become fixed with no displacement. Whereas, I want them to move. Could you please help me?

Thanks
