Topic: constraint for surface only compression - gid 11.0

Hello,

is it possible to define a constraint only in one direction, because in my problem the constraint should fail for tension.

Thank you,
mathias

Hello, for this purpose, you can use a nonlinear spring support with stiffness in tension about 1/100-1/1000 of its compressive stiffness.
