How to constrain lateral movement?

Post by devilmaycry »

Hello there,
I want to constrain the lateral movement of a simple elastic beam in 3D space. Since the Fix command only works on nodes, how can I implement this?

What you are trying to do is unclear. Can you give more explanation?

Thanks Prof. Scott, the issue has been solved. I meshed the beam and constrained its lateral movement with the fix command.
