I have a squre domain, how can I constraint the displacement of boudary condition to make the squre have a shear deformation?

Hi

take a look at the "roller" BC's but this will also restrain the "height", next is with V4 and the rigid connector you can block a rotation, but you might get other "side effects" depends what you are modelling

Good luck
