Piston Mechanical Event Simulation

In this tutorial, we perform a Mechanical Event Simulation (MES) of a piston assembly as the crank goes through one revolution.

Features Illustrated:

• Brick elements
• Truss elements
• Beam elements
• Prescribed rotation
• Load curves
• Defining the event (number of steps or capture rate)
• Mechanical Event Simulation
• Mechanical Event Simulation results
