    assembly analysis error code 144

    I got error 144. I have found on some site through google keywords: ----------------------------------------------------------------- """"Dear Friends, I have written a UEL for Strain Gradient Plasticity and is working well when i give Boundary condition as Concentrated force, But when i apply...

    Solidworks model to Abaqus

    This is what i must do: (animation) everything in this animated asembly must be simulated for results. Spring tension, forces on Rivets (points of contact between Rivets and spring), latch (the moving part with A number on it) is basically fixed, and frame on to po frame force is applyed...

    Solidworks model to Abaqus

    so basically there is no need to additionally apply position constraints. Therefore i must use this: QUOTE: "Actual physical constraints, such as contact or tied surfaces, would be defined as normal in the Interaction module." i must apply surface to surface contacts, fixed contact...

    Solidworks model to Abaqus

    Hi, i have successfully imported assembly from Solidworks to Abaqus. In Solidworks i have defined all mates as they should be. Question i have is, are the mates translated to abaqus with this assembly too? in abaqus it says under model/assembly/instances (14) (total are 14), but there are no...

    Spring simulation

    hi, i am stuck, and i need guidance. Here is link to youtube. (a better way to explain this) :D Spring problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfmw9FK-9lw then assembly problem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rA27ho1UR9w question: how to make it work. Through mates? sketch mates? I tryed...

    SolidWorks surface-based error

    hey, thank you for advices. I have found that, when i manualy set: under "connections" (contact set) with no penetration it give me that error. Probably because i have not defined it properly. What i did is, deleted all that manual connections (on my video at 3 seconds left on the "tree...

    SolidWorks surface-based error

    Hi, all. Recently i have started to do simulations in Solidworks 2011. At work i must simulate pressure/force momentum.. on one of our products. I am new at this, thus i came here for help. Am i doing right? what is the procedure for this type of simulation. (look under project tree on video)...
