I was checking the feasibility of this idea to see if the overall tooling cost could be reduced if incorporated at appropriate point in design in Die casting. And to see if there could be an inherent reason for not being able to achieve this.
Let me further explore the possibilities and...
I have a question regarding casting operation.
I want to know if it is feasible to block off a certain portion of the mold cavity to produce a part similar to the original part but excludes certain features
( For Example trying to produce blocks "E" and "F" using the same mold by blocking the...
I have modeled a 2-D cantilever beam kind of model. constrained completely (all DOF) at the left end.
I have defined thermal strain (isotropic) for the 2 temperatures of 0 and 240.
I have taken zero as the reference temperature using reference temperature option under load as well as under...
I have trying to solve thermal loading of bimetallic strips.
I have been getting zero displacements and strains even after specifying all the relevant temperature (uniform and reference) and the material data. I am using Plane82 element( which according to help can solve for thermal loads).
I...
