Hi all,

I am workingv on an simple project but I need your help. I enclosed a picture of my project. I have two plastic cylinders(contact with friction). I would like to know the force I need(2 pointers) in order to my orange cylinder does a displacement of 5 cm long. I fixed my blue cylinder and imposed the displacement to the orange cylinder. The simulation looks working(Large displacement) but how I can know the force?

Moreover I take advantage of that to ask you another question. Usually when I do a FEA analysis with other softwares I check if my results don't depend on my mesh. But apparently here Solidworks does it by itself, right?

Thanks !
