    Torsion in shafts: shear stress calculation error

    Hi, I am trying to simulate a simple solid shaft that is fixed at one end face and has a torsion applied to another end face. If I choose the load type as torsion in NX 11, it does not allow me to select the end face for applying torsion, instead, it applies the torsion load to the...

    Glue, RB2 and CGAP elements

    Hi, I wnated to know if I can replce glue contact with a RB2 (node to node), CGAP (node to node ) or simply by doing a node equivalence between two surfaces. Would it make a difference??? Thanks.

    Contact type problem in NX

    Hi, I am trying to model a quarter model of quadcopter drone. I wanted some guidance on two surface contacts, I have attached the snapshots of the two cases. Case 1: Contact between motor and a spinner: The top part of motor rotates with the spinner, now I am confused as to what type of contact...

    NX 11.0: Wrong beam deflection results

    Hi can can someone share a reference about how to calculate the shear deflections in case of an I beam fixed at both ends. I googled and couldn't find a reliable formula or equation to find it using Timoshenko beam theory. Thanks, Ashwani Thakur.

    NX 11.0: Wrong beam deflection results

    @ rb1957 Yes I have modeled it using beam elements only. That's why I got confused that why the results are not matching the beam theory results. Thanks.

    Beam Analysis: Beam cross section view different nature of stress at different beam length

    Thanks, yeah moment diagram is helpful. Also just wanted to ask like few of my friends did the same problem but the stress results they got has stress value negative near beam ends and positive near center, and if you look at cross section view at center top fibers are in tension (+ve stress )...

    NX 11.0: Wrong beam deflection results

    @ jbrackin, I have attached the .dat file @ rb1957, counln't get what you are saying, please elaborate. Thanks Allhttp://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=b1e79cbe-fcdf-4f0d-b91a-7161e187b47e&file=assignment1_sim1-solution_1.dat

    Beam Analysis: Beam cross section view different nature of stress at different beam length

    Hi, I am doing a problem of I bean subjected to uniform transverse load actiong downward on beams. Since the load is acting same (downward) through out the beam, I understand that the nature of stress should be same through out the beam i.ie. compressive at top fibers and tensile at bottom...

    NX 11.0: Wrong beam deflection results

    Hi, I am doing a simple problem of a beam fixed at both ends and carrying a uniform distribiuted load, material is steel. The results given by NX are different from the results I get using beam deflection formulas (Theoretical). In attachments I have attached the beam problem, Beam theory...
