    Overlapping design spaces in Topology Optimization

    I am using topology optimization in NX12. I have two design spaces, consisting of two volumes which share some of the same space (see picture below). In other words, these two boxes slightly overlap. They both have constraints and load cases applied. You are seeing the resulting geometry...

    Sweep wants to twist along guide? [Solved]

    I am using NX12. I am experiencing an unfortunate twist in the sweep and I can not find a way to solve this. I am trying to transition from a square section to a circular section. As you can see in the images, the transition is twisted 45 degrees, as if subjected to a massive torque. How...

    (FEM) 2D mesh interprets curve incorrectly.

    Im trying to mesh and simulate stress in a simple 2d example. This represents a 1x20x100mm flat piece of steel under stress. There is a stress concentration (notch) in the middle, with diameter 2mm. I have been reducing the element size gradually to find a convergence value for maximal stress...

    Divide a curve using another curve (Sketching in NX)

    Hello. I have tried to google this rather trivial request, but couldnt find anything. All related scenarios tend to relate to curves outside of sketches. What I wish to do is cut the green line in two, exactly at the intersection with the reference line (Red Horizontal line). [I made this...

    Auto Balloon only woks for one view?

    I can't get NX to give me auto balloon for multiple views in different sheets. It doesn't give me any error message, the balloons simply do not appear. They worked fine in the first assembly view. Not on any of my other sheets for some reason. I was thinking I could try to add multiple parts...

    How can I set the drafting application for small format drawings? (Siemens NX)

    I am trying to generate some documents (pdf) from my drawing sheets in NX. I want to use primarily A4 and A3 size sheets. ISO / NS Standard. Firstly, the generated dimensions, symbols, and annotations, are oversized. Well, the 3.5 size of the dimension text is actually within ISO standard...
