  Hello,
  
  i want to simulate a spinning disk (like a turbine disk). In the first step i want to look at an easy model e.g. a hollow cylinder. To apply the velocity is no problem, but i struggle with the support. How can i solve the problem?

  Just use fixed and apply an angular velocity (inertial) (the centrifugal force will be generated thus - m*r*omega^2 on the body putting it in tension, say for a blade)
