Fixed Constraint, Interface
Use the
Fixed Constraint, Interface
to add a condition where the displacements constrained in all directions at interfaces between material layers in the selected geometric entity.
To constrain the actual material layers, use
Fixed Constraint
.
Layer Selection
Select the interface or interfaces for which this constraint is to be added.
