Articulated Joint for substructure

How to define articulated joint for substructure.

Hi,

Could you clarify your question?

In the substructure, the SUBCONSTRAINTS table allows you to constrain individual degrees of freedom (DOFs) of a joint to one another, either rigidly or via nonlinear springs and dampers. However, it is not possible to directly articulate the movement between joints. That said, you could apply external forces to the model to induce a form of articulated motion.

Best regards,

David
