    Bolt pre-load

    I have an ABAQUS input deck which I'm running through the batch command (I do not have ABAQUS CAE). I have got 4 steps defined. In the first step I have the bolt pre-load defined (CLOAD OP=NEW) In the second step I define the external load of 25000 (CLOAD OP=MOD). I put OP=MOD because I want...

    Bolted joint- bolt preload

    I modeleld a bolted joint in NX and applied external loads.The bhaviour was as expected and I am happy with the results so far.I have plotted applied load vs bolt preload as in the figure attached.This is at ambient temperature. Now, in NX there is an option to apply a temperarature preload...

    NX Open - creating menus

    I'm struggling with this since yesterday. I need to create menus in NX 8.5 and then create callbacks (menu event handlers) for calling my own code/subroutines in C++ which are all ready and tested. Firstly, I'm struggling to create menus itself" I have the NX Open docuemntation and I'm...

    Bolted joint in NX 8.5

    Hi, I have got a bolted joint in NX 8.5. I have applied only the bolt preload and kept the friction coefficient as 0. See attached gif image file, the bolts deform to enormoud magnitude without friction. I did not expect so. I expected wthout friction effect there might just be tenmsile...

    Bolt preload using NX8.5

    HAs anyone tried bolt prelaoding with NX 8.5 which allows modelling bolt as solids?

    bolt preload

    thread725-272020 I am very eager to see the link (jpg image) mentioned by Tmoose in his post in the above thread. Can someone help? The image appears lost-if Tmoose read this-pls can you re-post the image?

    Bolt preload in NX 8.5

    Has anyone used NX 8.5 for bolt preload? NX 8.5 models the bolt as solid element-anyone has experience using this functionality? Any video/tutorial for this will be very useful Christy

    Pressure load

    rb1957 In that case (applied load distributed over an area)- it is strictly 'not' pressure, it is a distributed traction. Strictly going by the definition of pressure, it acts in all directions and is described by the magnitude alone.

    Pressure load

    Hi-I asked this question in another discussion group on eng-tips but was advised to post here instead -I did not get satifactory replies in the that group (NX-UG) as well I have just been reading the tutorial in NX (as well as practising doing it) concerning pressure loads in NX. Now, if you...

    Pressure load in NX: A fundamental question

    I have just been reading the tutorial (as well as practising doing it) concerning pressure loads in NX. Now, if you recall the definition of pressure (http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_pressure_is_scalar_quantity_where_as_force_is_vector_quantity) we see pressure is a scalar. This is clear...

    FE model check

    Another question- Are these checks at following the solution(i.e. after the analysis) or before analysis?

    FE model check

    Hi All, I shall be grateful if you can point me in write direction. I have some experience in writing FE codes for 1D elements (inclusing non linear) and have recently started using NX as a user in my workplace. In NX (and I guess in all other FE softwares) we have FE model check based on the...

    Element shape check in NX

    I'm relatively new to NX The results of element shape check in NX are based on the following criteria: 1)Aspect ratio 2)Warp 3)Skew 4)Taper 5)Jacobian ratio 6)Jacobian zero 7)Minimum angle 8)Maximum anle I would like to know if theere is any theory manual available in NX which gives an...
