For background, i am very new to solidworks.
I manage to create this jacket model but when im conducting static analysis with gravity, the structure tends to over deform. Could it be the way i put fixtures and the type of meshing for each element is not correct? Please assist. Thank you.
Qi Xian Ho,
I use your full name because I am never sure which name to use with oriental names.
I didn't look at your files, but you might want to check how the results are being displayed. Make sure that you are looking at a normally scaled plot of the deflections. Simulation software often uses exaggerated scales so that very small deflections will be noticeable in the plots.
