I am familiar with Catia V5 R16 and new to Solid Works 2008.I am attempting to model a rubber hose under forces of gravity anddrag. The hose is supported by a hinge restraint and starts outhorizontally. Essentially I want to apply various drag forces andstudy where the hose rests in the air in relation to the horizontalstarting point.

Problem 1:

The problem is when running the analysis I get a large displacementerror. I also tried activating the large displacement flag and nowthe analysis fails.


Problem 2:

My study type is set to static and I have attempted to change thestudy type however, Cosmos will not show any analysis types otherthan static.


Any help on this issue would be amazing and very muchappreciated.SolidworksSimulation
