    Parameter study of parts modelled by the top-down design approach

    Hi all, I want to do a parameter study in ansys of a part (call it Part A) modeled with Inventor 2016 using the skeletal modelling technique. This means its geometry with all parameter driven dimensions are found in a master part (Part B). Here is the problem. I am not able to import part A...

    Question about required load combinations from Table 5.5 in ASME VIII

    Thank you for your answers, all. But how do I then identify the correct load factor for the torque action? "D" does not exactly fit the description. Do I then simply add L to the local load criterion, such that it becomes 1.7(P+Ps+D+L), or how do I know that 1.7 is the correct/intended safety...

    Question about required load combinations from Table 5.5 in ASME VIII

    Hi, So, I am analyizing a drive shaft that is pressurized thru several bores, but also transfers a significant torque. In ASME VIII table 5.5, all the required load combinations are defined. Here, I define the pressure as P and the torque as L, because the torque is a result of relative...
