  With Discovery Live, how do you model a load through a part where one of the "fixed" points is a bearing on a shaft? Such a location is not really fixed... Also, how do you put together an analysis for loading that goes through several parts of different materials which are connected by a bolted joint?

  Hello imonabuss Regarding your first question, current version of Discovery Live handles only bonded contacts. What you are looking for is a frictionless contact which is currently on possible in Live but possible in AIM. We thank you for sharing your feedback. We will share your idea/input with the product development team. Regarding your second question also, it is currently not possible in Discovery Live We thank you for sharing your feedback. We will share your idea/input with the product development team.
