  Hi
  
  I ran a simulation of a tweezers with load on each part of the handle. The solid deformed and self intersect like in the attachment. Please advise how to overcome this issues. The solid should self collide and deformed again. Am I missing some setting?
  
  Thank you.

  Hello Rapid Team
  
  This is a problem of non linear contacts which cannot be modeled in Discovery Live as of now. However, you should be able to do this using Discovery AIM. Please check out tutorial 4 from below link which involves non-linear contacts.
