For example, if you designed a collet and wanted to constrain a small section of the outside surface, you might add a region to the model. If you then omitted the region from your pairing scheme,
Creo Simulate would compress and subsequently analyze the model differently depending on which surface was the top surface. To see how the compression results change when the unopposed surface is the top or bottom surface of the pair, see the
collet cross section illustration.
After you pair your model, you can inspect the pairing scheme using the
Simulation Geometry dialog box.
