Static Analysis with Mass

Trying to do a static analysis with some idealised mass loads and material mass of structure. Want to constrain it with a hinged yoke, so it hangs freely thorugh its CoG.


Trouble is, the hinge pins always seem to bond and put bending loads in the yoke. This even happens if I allow rotation in the constraint.


Can Mechanica do whatI want? i.e. allow the load to rotate to its CoG then perform static analysis in that orientation?
