After all this analysis that is what I am figuring but how its making these inconsistencies I am not sure. I just find it out that if I decrease the time interval per iteration, the overall time span decreases, and vice versa if I increase the itme interval. Almost every iteration type of...
When I say within Matlab I am referring to errors that arise in Matlab such as round off errors or truncation errors. The time steps I am using are really small so my inital guess was the time steps were being truncated during calculation steps within the code.
I have tried to set up my system...
I am currently performing an iteration calculation for a model that involves variably changing acceleration. The acceleration is dependent on position for this model. When I plot the data with respect to position, the data is accurate. However, when I plot it with respect to time the...
Yeah I noiced that too. I am going to try to get a custom size where there is sufficient material in between. As for the application of it it is basically being treated as a bearing for a lead screw and gear. The square shaft becomes locked and the gears and lead screw rotate around these...
I have seen hese but this type of collar is not what I am looking for. The ones we have now are virtually a solid metal rod with a square bore. I am hoping to replicate this type of collar but on a larger scale.
As part of a shaft design I am working on, there are a few shaft collars that have a square bore to fit on a square shaft. I was wondering if these types of collars/sleeves are relatively common and could be found from a supplier. I have seen these very commonly in the past and it doesn't seem...
I am looking at getting some hardened shafts made from 1566 steel, but I am trying to figure out the machinability of the material. Online sources seem to show very little about the mechanical data of this steel. Does anyone know of this information or have any experience working with this...
I have dimensions that I need to display with .0 but even setting the dimension to one decimal display it only displays it as an integer
I have tried to change the lead_trail_zeroes & the lead_trail_zeroes_scope to default and all but it has not fixed the problem (this was recomended in a...
That's what I was thinking but Creo is not giving me an option to search for the sheet format when the drawing file is opened. I know the path to the templates but cannot find a path for the templates that Creo generally uses.
After saving a drawing file, I closed Creo and opened it back up some time later. When I go to open up the drawing file again, the sheet format pretty much changes itself to most of the parameters I adjusted when I originally started the file and everything else disappeared. This has happened to...
So far just basic training my company has given me since I will not be working long enough to take their full training course. I managed to get my issue fixed but am still learning as I go
I am currently trying to reorient a part in order for the drawing views to to come out alright but whenever I reorient a new view it always goes back to the first view I used.
I reoriented the front view (works out ok). When I ry to reorient the other views it just goes back to the front view...
I have a mechanism modeled that involves a spring-pulled pin traveling through a set of different closed profiles on different parts in the mechanism. When I am trying to do a motion analysis of the mechanism, it only allows me to make a slot constraint for the pin and parts in order to model...
I am trying to send my SolidWorks files to another engineer but he only has Unigraphics. I was told there is a method to convert SolidWorks files into UG files but I am uncertain of the method to do so. If there is no way to directly convert it to UG would it be best to convert it to either IGES...
I have a design drawn up to adjust a piece of machinery by a lead screw with an anchor attached to the machine. The original request was to have a hand wheel installed to the end of the screw for manual operation. Now the request has been changed to use a tool to turn the screw instead of by...
I am creating an assembly, where I have recently included a shoulder bolt from McMaster into the overall assembly. The component of the bolt shows numerous dimension details in various colors that I cannot possibly hide by simply clicking on them and hiding them. Does anyone know how to get rid...
I am trying to extrude a sketch I drew up and every time it tells me the sketch has unsuitable geometry. I went through and deleted any overlapping lines and closed off any gaps that were still laying around. However, though I have a feeling the reason for this is because of endpoints that were...
The joints are fairly simple. Basically it is set up like a clevis pin joint with a bearing between the two arms. The weight of the arms and mechanism itself is very low, only about 2-3 lbs. at best. To help it even out more, instead of a traditional regulator, I put in a hand control valve that...
