Hello,
I simulates a small thin walled cylinder, closed at both ends.
It is subjected to external pressure.
To have no constraints, I am Loading inertial balance.
I run the simulation, I travel and the stress on the entire piece.
I cut the cylinder in two lengthwise through the axis.
I divide my pressure 2.
In the example of manual Wildfire 2.0 belt buckle.
I place restrictions of symmetry of the cutting face.
I run the simulation, I travel and constraints, but not the same values as before, totally different.
In this case, I only deformation of the cylinder on the edge of the cutting cylinder, but not elsewhere.
For this type of simulation should proceed in a specific manner.
Cordially.
Denis
