Problem With forces on Battery Shell

For one of our projects i am trying to simulate our Battery Shell. The first/lowest Battery Shell will have a load of max 700kgs. i am trying to simulate this without succes.

when trying to simulate the Battery Shell the pop up with error says the following:

Your analysis does not contain a sufficient set of constraints and would likely fail. Please review your simulation setup before starting the analysis and make sure your model is sufficiently constrained by boundary conditions.

its probably a small thing that i have to adjust, but i am new to Simscale so i thought i hop on the forum with this question.

Kind Regards,

Robin

Hi @robin4862, thanks for posting on the forum and welcome to the SimScale Community :handshake:

It’s hard to tell what the problem actually is without having access to your project in particular (take a look here to learn more about our sharing options).

However, keep in mind that Static simulations need to be constrained for them to work. This means that, for any force that’s being applied, there needs to exist a boundary condition which resricts all of the bodies (in every direction).

Our users tend to find our introductory tutorials helpful in understanding this concept! Let us know if you do too:
