    Temperature Preload from Transient Thermal Solution

    Hello I am doing a project in Advanced Simulation module which involves moving heat-source. Thermal solution has got 100 time steps sampled to 50 results. I need to do a structural analysis to show stress and displacement using temperature preload from thermal solution. Now the problem is that...

    NX 5.0 and rendering high resolution image

    Yes it is possible. All you have to do is open Visualisation/Visualise Shape toolbar, click "High Quality Image" icon, choose "Image preferences", select "User defined" in "Image Size" line and type any resolution you want. Now go back to previous window, click "Start Shade" and when rendering...

    Rendering in NX6 and multicore cpu

    Hello I've been doing many visualisations lately and I thought it would save a lot of time if nx's rendering engine was capable of using more than one core. Or maybe it's already possible? Best Regards, Koen

    Rack and pinion help needed

    Hello I'm trying to build a motion simulation that contains rack and pinion. Well, I think that the attached drawing explains it good enough. The problem I have is related to the slider joint. How should I set it up (BASE link, origin and orientation) to make it work properly with the Rack and...

    Spring compresion in motion simulation in NX5

    cowski, Your solution works perfectly! I extracted the edge of my cam, joined curves, extruded new shape and moved to reference set. I dont know how to thank you guys (hudson888 and cowski), you were really helpful :) I'll post a link to the movie when I put everything together. Best Regards, Koen

    Spring compresion in motion simulation in NX5

    I think its not possible in motion simulation module from the simple reason - expressions from basic assembly (like spring height or measurments) are not being updated in motion solver. Hudson, Nice website, I wish I had such job after I graduate :) Anyway back on topic, I managed to animate...

    Spring compresion in motion simulation in NX5

    Yes you are right in this case, but the actual question was related to engine assembly which has got some more complex relations impossible to create with assembly constraints/mating conditions so motion of main parts (all excluding springs) have to be "imported" somehow from motion simulation...

    Spring compresion in motion simulation in NX5

    Thank You for help, I think we are getting closer to the solution :) The last thing is - how to "merge" the motion from motion simulation, with the motion of the spring so that I can record a movie with both motions at the same time? I managed to save the motion simulation as a sequence so now i...

    Spring compresion in motion simulation in NX5

    Hudson, Could you share with us your simulation files so we can see how you achieved the result from your last movie? They are stored in a separate subdirectory in the folder with assembly. Best Regards, Koen

    Spring compresion in motion simulation in NX5

    Hello, Im also having big troubles with springs motion. I know how to define them as deformable geometry so they update in assembly, but I'd like them to animate with the rest of the mechanism in Motion Simulation module. Is it possible? Best Regards, Koen
