    Data Translator

    We have a need to be able to translate Abaqus files to a form that is compatible with ANSYS, is there a translator that will do this?

    Material Library

    I realize the analysts on this forum are going to argue that FEA should remain the secretive science that it has been for decades, but simple linear elastic studies can be accomplished by competent design engineers in a more automated GUI. Solidworks has done a very good job of creating an...

    Material Library

    I am an end user and for most of the structural problems we deal with Solidworks Sim produces accurate results, when properly used, which have been verified with ANSYS and ABAQUS. In an effort to use common engineering tools division-wide, the decision has been made to use ABAQUS and to use...

    Material Library

    I have looked into the Materality application, which is somewhat expensive, but does look interesting. You don't package a basic material library for Abaqus?

    Material Library

    Our site (part of a large military contractor) has just obtained the necessary network licenses to run Abaqus and several of the MEs are trying to get up to speed, having used the Solidworks FEA for years. It seems odd that this expensive application would be delivered without a basic material...

    Lord SC309 encapsualent

    I am involved in a review of a design of a potted high voltage (12kV) PCB assembly using Lord SC309 potting compound. We are noticing voltage punching through the potting in areas where there is margin in the thickness providing more than enough dielectric strength. The condition of the cured...

    Aviation Fuel Thermal Properties

    Can anyone point me to a reference for the thermal properties of aviation fuel, specifically Jet A (JP8)? This is needed as I am involved in a design that will require the use of Jet A as a coolant.

    Pipes and tubes: is the difference still taught?

    I recently bought the wrong size tube fitting because I didn't understand the sizing in CPS (Copper Pipe Size). Apparently some tubing products are being sized according to the IPS nomenclature, using the ID as the size.

    Eigenvalues of two similar structures

    The .042Hz is likely a "rigid body mode", check your model for accurately modeled restraints.
