    What is the best way to create a spot weld connection if the stiffness coeff of the weld is known ?

    NX , Advanced simulation, I need to create a spot weld between two thin shell mesh , with spot weld dia 5 mm. If I create spot weld using RBE2 , I have stress concentrated near the edge of the spotweld dia.. What is the best method to model this spot weld , to include stiffness coeeff parameter.

    Which is the right way of considering damping in Response Dynamics?Modal Damp or Material Damping?

    That was a good explanation. Thank you. Erik Panos Kostson And , Now I understand that we should give any one damping , Either Modal or Material. Is it Correct? Suppose , The mode shape is due to Steel component fixed on a rigid structure. Now I have both Material Damping Coeef,GE=0.03 and...

    Which is the right way of considering damping in Response Dynamics?Modal Damp or Material Damping?

    I am trying to validate the strength of the component which operates in a certain frequency range. NX Advanced simulation - SOl 103 Response Dynamics is used to do the simulation. Based on the Mode shapes, I am creating the Frequency Response Event. Now the doubt is, where should I input the...

    Is it possible to create a customized button for a macro in NX9?

    I have already created a macro. But dont want to use Menu→Tools→Macros→Playback→selecting the macro file, to play the macro each time. Instead, is it possible to create an icon in tool bar and assign the macro to that icon ?

    Is it acceptable if I create a datum feature and do not refer it anywhere in the drawing?

    Its clear now. Thank you chez311 for the great explanation. @CheckHater, Due to confidential reason, I couldnot share the sketch, Sorry. BUt the sketch shared by chez311 almost supports my query and clarified it. Thanks..

    Is it acceptable if I create a datum feature and do not refer it anywhere in the drawing?

    Thanks for your comment CheckerHater,mkcski. This is my case. In inspection point of view, In-order to arrest all six degrees of freedom , I have defined three datum feature. Datum Feature A - Planar surface Datum feature B- Planar surface vertical to the one defined above. Datum feature C- A...

    Is it acceptable if I create a datum feature and do not refer it anywhere in the drawing?

    For example, suppose I mark a plane surface of a component a datum feature A and now I do not refer it anywhere on the drawing for marking any tolerance feature. Is that acceptable ?

    What is the best way to break the link between Assembly CAD and drawing in NX teamcenter 10?

    Requirements : 1. The CAD data is huge, so it is not necessary to link with the drawing , for further process flow. 2. The drawing should be ease to update in future. Is there any option available ready made in NX teamcenter, keeping these requirements in mind? Is there any best practice can be...

    What are thr Drawbacks of NX 9

    Switched recently to NX 9 from NX 7.5. Feeling an advanced interface with so many improvements. But very few feature lags exist, which was not exists in previous versions. Ex: No option to set customized user role as DEFAULT , in NX 9 but it was available in NX 7. Likewise what are all some...

    Deviation of Mode shape frequency values between UG NX Nastran and Ideas NX

    Why there is a deviation of results even if I solve a same FE model in NX Nastran and Ideas Model solution solver. What has to be done to match the results. Are there different types of algorithms used for each solver. In UG NX , the first mode is about 190.5 HZ. The same FE model is exported...
