Step1:- First import the model and create a mesh.using 2D>automesh

Step2:-Now we create connection. we can use 1D,2D,3D connection option.

1.Bolt connection:- To create bolt connection we go 2D>connection>bolt>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

2. Spot-weld with rigid element:- To create spot-weld with rigid element connection we go 2D>connection>spot>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

3.Spot-weld with spring element:-  To create spot-weld with spring element connection we go 2D>connection>spot>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

4.Hexa(Adhesive):- To create Hexa(Adhesive) connection we go 2D>connection>seam>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

5.Quad element:- To create quad element connection we go 2D>connection>seam>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

6.Seam-Quad(angled+cappled+l):- To createseam-quad(angled+capped+l) connection we go 2D>connection>seam>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

7.Spot-weld with 2layers and 5mm diameter:-To create spot-weld with 2 layers and 5mm diameter connection we go 2D>connection>spot>select node, component,type of layer and type of connection.

Conclusion:- In this challenge we learn about how apployed the connection between the part, where its required, and why its important for parts.
