Springs - nonlinear analysis

Hi
Just wondering if springs can work with the AnalyzeNonlinWIP component.
Thanks
Rodolfo

Hi @r.lorenzo,
they should. Did you encounter any problems?

Thanks @karamba3d
I was struggling with convergence in a model with springs and so went back to one of your spring test examples (attached with new components plugged in just in case…) to try the AnalizeNonlinWIP. Not much luck so far so any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
