Thanks to all. Actually I'm only the checker for this experiment and I will definetely suggest to lab guys to repeat it again. For example writing a good test plan before. Hopefully we'll come out with reasonable results. Claudia

Hi guys, thanks to all. The latch is subjected to big and time-short forces. I thought that maybe in this case, passed the stickness condition at the beginning, since the speeds involved are very high, the viscosity of the residues on the surface would make the latch more "slippy". What do you...

Hi David. Thanks for your reply. We actually tested the latch after spilling in sequence the three liquids and without evaluating intermediate behaviour. This latch will be part of a seat in such a way that it will be difficult to visually inspect it, unless we take the seat in pieces (which...

Hi everybody. I experienced a weird behaviour of a steel inertial latch whose reliability is currently doubtful. We performed a spill test in which the latch: 1) was immersed in black coffee and then allowed to dry for three hours; 2) then immersed in coke and again allowed to dry for three...

I don't know if somebody already knows it. You can always ignore... Anyway, after 1 month of stressing trials, I found out (confirmed by MSC technical support) that the actual Sol 600 (in which Nastran acts as a translator for a Marc analysis) doesn't support the Sol 114 (cyclic symmetry), even...

Well, as far as I know, this is a problem of convergence. You could try to modify the parameters of the non-linear analysis (such as the time-step, the residual error etc.) and look what's happen. I had similar problems but I cannot tell you more because I'm still fighting with them. Solidal...

In assembly design you can definetely use the "sectioning" command. If you have the "space analysis" toolbar it is the icon with a sphere and a plane interfering in a bright yellow part. Moving the section plane in the 3D space, you have the different section views in the left part of the...

Does anyone know if there are particular problems or difficulties in using cyclic symmetry set by patran for a contact analysis with marc? As for the manuals, it seems possible to do, but I'm experiencing several problems even in writing the input file... Cheers, Catibon.

Hi, vnpenguin. Thank you for your quick answer. I tried to write the complete path of the file, but the field is very very small, only 8 characters. It looks like very strange... Moreover it seems that I MUST choose between DISKETTE and TAPE_8MM before going further, but it's impossible to copy...

Hi. I would like to run CATIMP utility in CATIA 4.2.2 on Unix, in order to extract model files from an EXP file on my HD. The problem is that I can't select the input file using "STRING" field because it doesn't find anything!! (And also I'm not sure about choosing between the sources...
