Can you show a cross section of the plastic joint where there would be no seam? None of the plastic design guidelines show this kind of joint. If not, can you show a cross section of how you would design an esthetically pleasing joint? Thank You!
What are the forces that the barb could see? How much of the barb will be exposed as that will determine the moment arm. You should consider a pressure test to (SF x working pressure) if this is going to hold pressure. Maybe a burst test on a sample from each lot. It is about meeting the...
Many plastic housings that I see have a groove along the seam where the top and bottom of the housing meet. This groove is illustrated in the attached picture of a calculator housing(TI-89). First, is this groove there to prevent a lip that your finger can catch on? Also, is there any way to...
Hello!
Thank you for the detailed reply. You are correct that I meant to type axisymmetric and not antisymmetric. However, I am still getting the same error as before. Can you post the Mesh Information? My Mesh information is:

Hi All,
Please help me to display the material orientations of antisymmetric CQUADX4 elements. I set the material orientation angle to 45 deg in the "Edit Mesh Associated Data..." dialog box. I then tried to plot the material orientations by click check->material orientations. However, I...
Hello! I export a results envelope containing the maximum stress component to a universal file. Now I opened the universal file and I am trying to understand its format/meaning. The .unv file looks like the following snippet and my comments are proceeded by #:
-1 #I think this just...
I want all the components of the stress tensor at all elements. For example, I would want a table
Element ID XX YY ZZ XY XZ YZ
105 32.1 27.2 15.1 2.4 6.2 7.5
106 34.1 22.2 11.1 1.4 8.2 2.5

How do I export element stress to a text file in NX8? The results file (*.op2) is a binary file and I do not see any docs on how to read it so I have been looking for a file->export->element stress option, but I have not found anything. I need the element stress in order to do some...
