hi all,
I'm analyzing an assembly of 2 sheet metal parts which will be a fixation for a traction hoist.
As represented in the attach, the minimum safety factor are located in a trimmed side bend, which in reality will not exist because it will be welded. So any one can give any advice about how to correctly input in cosmosworks that weld? I have tried the link connectors without any results... ?
Please see the attach
Many thanks for the help.

If that's the case, simply fill with base material. Remember that stresses in or at the toe/heel of a weld are never accurate so don't get hung up on the local results. This "fill" material should ensure that the load transfer is correct.
