Hi I am returning to Creo after 5 years away from it. I have to set up a system from scratch i.e. templates for parts, drawings and assemblies etc. Any advice on setting this up to make the most of ProE smarter functionality.... I know its capable but I never had to set it up myself. My current...

Hi I have an official data set from AAR which has all positive Max and Min Accelerations with the number of occurances that each set occurs, however the data I have to compare with is a combination of Positive and negative Max and Min accelerations and its occurances. How do convert both sets...

Hi I have a problem... My boss wants me to determine the pressure developed by lets say "fluid" leaving a vessel and being equalised by Atmosphere. The vessel is like 4 metres tall with curved walls towards the bottom, the walls are curved outwards, and slope back in at the bottom. see...

Folks thanks for the advice so far. I agree with earlier comments thats easier to just go out an look at the silly thing and get results but I cant. Some one else in the company is doing that and I get asked to come up with the anwsers... I have asked for a video for future reference though...

Hi All I currently been asked to analyse the interaction of the forces of a chain and pulley system. The thing is I am being asked to take into account friction slack etc in the analysis. If the force applied at one end is 19.9kN in one instance from the chain end. another instance 10kN is...

How do you know if your Connection methods and Loads are applied in the manner the same as Product your building? Deigning a gate system for the bottom of a big grain vessel. IS this an experience thing or is the some guide lines somewhere ?

I have two shapes that are not exactly easy to Get the I value for. One is like a tent shape, 5mm thick. Triangular/ hinge at the top with two flanges on either side. In the middle of the tent there is an open rib or web to give the tent more rigidity and stiffner. I have tried the analyis...

Euler or Johnson..? The columns are short about .6m to 0.9m I am inclined to use Johnson from what I was taught at college. when comparing the slenderness ratio with the column constant they both come out saying use Johnson. Any structural guys out there have a good argument about each...

Is there a way of rotating the positions of the plan elevation and end views or is it a case of just change the sheet layout to fit what you want?

I done the scripting a while ago .. .. we had a way of plotting a spline in a layer of it own... can someone remind me so I can help my mate now who wants to put in over a hundred points ..has it ready to roll in excel but does he have to have the command infront of each point or...

does anyone have a list of code commands that you can use in script and some rule that you use when writing the code/

Hi I am dimensions on objects . Depite setting up the style to dimension it with the correct sized text and arrowheads etc on a dimension style say kg20 as an example. Yet when I go to dimesion the object I get it the text coming out small..with a dimension style kg20$....What do I need to do...
