Table Formulas
Hi Itap, thanks for the reply. I'll have to look into writing user subroutines but from what I've found I'm afraid that's got to be the way to go about it. Does anyone have a reference to writing these subroutines perhaps? Would help a great deal. Thanks again- LtSnikch

MSC Marc: Table Formulas
Hello there, I am relatively new to MSC Marc / Mentat and I'm having some difficulties applying a load using a spatial distribution. Since the load is dependent on the nodes' x0 and y0 coordinates, I attempted to apply the load using a table, containing 2 independent variables (x0, and y0)...- LtSnikch

RBE3 connections for multiple source and target nodes
Hi, I'm working on a model using Siemens UGS/NX7.5 Nastran, where a solid is supported by various small cylinders. To model this, the cylinders are modeled as spring elements, and the supporting area of each cylinder is represented on the solid as a seperate circular surface. I've used TRI6...- LtSnikch

"Manual" element creation (for large number of elements)
Dear all, I have managed to go one step further. By obtaining node and element data, I have calculated which elements should be extracted from the mesh. However, now a new problem occurs which might be easier to solve: I now have the element labels which I wish to select. This array contains... -
"Manual" element creation (for large number of elements)
Hello all, I've been using NX Nastran for quite some time now. However, I've run into an issue which I can't seem to resolve, so I was hoping for some input. My goal is to create a number of individual 2d elements on a polygon surface (so, not necessarily in contact with each other). Later... -
Advanced non-linear (601) contact analysis
Hello all, For my graduation project I'm required to perform a non-linear transient contact analysis at this point. I have used NX rather much but not for this type of advanced non-linear solution and I'm running into a bit of a problem. My model consists fully of solid elements, it is neatly...
