niallmcgoo1304 is on a distinguished road
Hi I'm new to ANSYS software and this forum. I'm doing a project where I have to calculate the insertion force and retention force of a snap fit connector. I have set up a non-linear problem with a non linear material where the snap moves into a locked position. Im using displacement to move it (I cant figure out how to use a force yet) and I haven't a clue how to get insertion or retention forces from it.

Please any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks Niall
