I used instead of Offset feature, the Thicken feature. It worked good.
Insert ---> Offset/Scale ---> Thicken.
But at the same time, could you please Mr. Toost attach here the NX file which you modified.
Thank you.
Here is the file.
The airfoil now has a certain twist.
Why when I want to increase the Offset value (which is minimum now is 0.06 mm), the twist will not show as original ?
For example, I want the Offset to be +1.5 mm with same...
Hello, can I twist a solid body in NX 8.5 ?
Actually, first I had a sketch where I swept it along a helix. After that I used the Draft option but unfortunately the body is no more twisted as it was(it's an airfoil).
Can I know twist it again ??
Hey all,
Thank you for your responses.
Yes, I am using tet elements for my mesh.
Here is a picture as a print screen from a book says that:
For Brittle materials: If the Maximum Principle Stress reaches the Fracture Strength (TRS) of the material, it will fail.
So, I'll use it...
Attached is a picture of the mesh and position of the group of nodal forces applied as a big nodal force (Not to have a concentrated stress if I apply 1 single nodal force).
Second, I don't have a yield value in the data sheet. Instead I have the TRS value and K1C and...
Here is picture 2 (Von Mises)
I applied a force of 3500 N.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=1bd3d528-62e3-419f-99ba-e35da064f9ba&file=Von_Mises_1.jpg
Attached is the first picture of the results I got. (Maximum Principle Stress).
Note: TRS value is 3078 MPa while the Von Mises is 17350 MPa !!!!!!!! As you see, it's a huge difference !!!
So, can I compare the Max Principle Stress with the TRS and ignore the Von Mises ...
What is the difference between Von Mises and maximum Principal stress ?
I have a Brittle material (WC-10% Co), and I would like to see when it fractures. I have Transverse Rupture Strength value (3700 MPa).
Can I compare the Max Priciple Stress with TRS with ignoring Von Mises ??
I am using...

I want only to check where failure may occur without seeing the failure behavior and how the crack propagates.
Only analysis through the contour colors.
Besides, I have the Transverse Rapture Strength (TRS) value (3700MPa), Poisons ration, elastic modulus and K1C only.
Can I compare TRS with...
The thing is, I don't know the value of the force. That's why I am using FEM to know what maximum force I can apply on the tool before breakage.
I tried to apply a force on a bigger area (many nodes together) as attached below.
Are the results logical ...
My model is so easy. Isotropic Elasticity model using tungsten carbide cobalt as a material.
Applying a radial force near the tip of the tool while fixing the clamp.
My question now, can I use a Moment instead of the force ?
