This might be a stupid question but what causes blowdown pressure? Why would the pressure to open the valve be different than resetting the valve, or at least significantly different?
I want to show a contour of the maximum stress for all of the time steps. At time T2 element 1 could be at 60ksi but element 2 is 40. Then at T3 element 1 is 40ksi and 2 is at 60. I want to show a contour that shows both elements at 60 since that's the max they see over the entire time...
I added in my field output (surface shell elements) the section point 3 of 5. Problem is I'm not sure what I need to do to get the principal stresses from this point to show on screen.
I've tried the help's linearization steps but I get this error,
Results for all the points along the stress line were not found.
Selected end points and all intermediate sample points must lie within the current display group, and within solid continuum elements. Due to tolerance...
I'm working on a problem where we initially wanted to use Nastran linear solver but now realize we need to be using contact surfaces. The first thought is to use Abaqus in a non-linear way. We've got beams, bars, bricks, and shell elements all together. Since I currently use Femap I feel...
I'm doing a transient analysis with an acceleration input. However my model contains many segregated portions that are held together w/ pins and latches. I'm not sure how to set up contact surfaces without having a 3d mesh. I've got tubes joining in a T that are both modeled with plate...
I've got a problem where I need to analyze using NX NASTRAN/FEMAP (I didn't get to choose which program). I need to model a bolt going through a 3d mesh of blocks that are tied to some surfaces (See pic). The bolts are tightened into the blocks w/ threads but the connecting arm is free to...
I'm trying to decipher the code to translate an Iges file.
Dim oOptions As NameValueMap
Set oOptions = ThisApplication.TransientObjects.CreateNameValueMap
If oIGESTranslator.HasSaveCopyAsOptions(ThisApplication.ActiveDocument, oContext, oOptions) Then
' Set geometry type for...
Here's the code I've been trying but it won't recognize the colors brought in by the step file.
Dim ColorSet As femap.Set
Set ColorSet = App.feSet
rc=ColorSet.AddAll(40)
Color=ColorSet.First

I need to have the zone border increase numbers by sheet ie.
sheet1 1-8
sheet2 9-16
All of the numbers drawings I've ever seen have this. I'm not certain why it's not standard.
I need to bring in clearance parts on the clearance layer and electrical parts on the electrical layer. I can individually select the parts and adjust the properties but it's much easier to assign them a to a layer.
I need to be able to show a door swing in the idw but I've no idea how to set this up where it will follow the door if I move it to the other side of a room.
My company is switching from CATIA to NX. I personally am an Inventor user. I've avoided CATIA like the plague (hated using it) and am excited to be using NX. However those in charge of making the call seem to have completely excluded Pro/E from the decision making. Knowing virtually nothing...
is it possible to have xyz coordinates for a block controlled by an excel chart. Ie. I have a room w/ tables chairs etc. and instead of constantly rearranging each one I would just change the xyz in an excel sheet and update. I'm using MDT 2005.
