Immovable
This restraint type sets all translational degrees of freedom to zero.
It is the same for shells, beams and trusses. No reference geometry is
used.
To access the immovable restraint, right-click on Fixtures
in Simulation study tree and select Fixed
Geometry. Under Standard,
select Immovable (No translation).
For solids, you cannot access the Immovable
(No translation) option. The Fixed
Geometry restraint however is the same as the immovable restraint
for solids.
