Thanks Simon. I guess I'll keep trying and see if the simulation works. Can't set up an experiment where I work. I could just do this with a single spacer, but a spherical surface helps distribute the forces all over, so my calculation would just be an approximation for a flat surface. Danger...

I need to find the impact force that can be absorbed by these spacers as shown in the image. The spacers are radially distributed over the shell, and they are supposed to dampen any external impact loads to reduce the effective stress inside the inner shell. Since the FEA model is not showing...
