Hinges at beam ends?

cashancashan
Is it possible to simulate hinges between two beams in Mecway ?
Or build some like MPC, where only some DOF will be transferred ? (in my case, rotation will be free)

    This is the flexible joint on beam under Loads & Constraints. It's sometimes a little tricky since you need to apply it to the end "face" of a beam. See Help -> Manual -> 10.9 Flexible joint on beam if you have trouble selecting the face.

    That's only for the internal solver. For the CCX solver, you may have to do like you suggested and make constraint equations to couple two beams together.
