Hi,

Roller is placed on the sheet and sheet is start moving because of roller rotation. I just want to give a roller rotation using 'Prescribed Dsiplacement' b.c in x and y about a point and also if the center point is different from origin, how we can give.

Pls clarify. Thanks.

Hi

if you are in "solid" and your roller has a internal circle/cylinder shape (and not a point that gives singularity) you can use the rigid connector and prescribe the CoR (centre of rotation), or you migfht add a wek constraints on "r" a cylidrical coordiante defined at the centre of rotation for your circular "rolling" boundary. Or you try the "roller condition on a circle/cylinder

Good luck
