Attachment
The Attachment node is used to define a point or a set of points on a flexible beam which can be used to connect it with other components through a joint in the Multibody Dynamics interface. All the selected points behave as if they were connected by a common rigid body.
Attachments can be added to boundaries in a Multibody Dynamics or a Solid Mechanics interface, to edges in a Shell or Layered Shell interface, or to points in a Beam interface. This makes it possible to use a joint in the Multibody Dynamics interface for connecting parts modeled in different physics interfaces.
The use of attachments is discussed in the Attachments section in the Structural Mechanics Modeling chapter.
