Re: Material orientation setup
Hi Randy This contraption is just meant for people that accidentally define their material coordinate system in the wrong direction.If you want your material to be oriented along the x-direction, the...

Mika: You could try adding a manly pink annotation, but you have to re-enter the modal max and value yourself Erik

Re: Creo Simulate tag color
Other option is to change the background scheme of the Results window (from Options dialog). Black color of annotations should change to a contrast color.

Re: Creo Simulate tag color
I'm stupid. :/ I looked all over. Tried changing all the possibly relevant colors in the System colors menu. Even changed the "Letter" setting about a million times. All the other texts changed color,...

Mika At least now you can mark your find as the right answer. Somebody giving the right answers can't be stupid!

Bob, It's a constant and presumably hardwired. At least, that's what I have assumed.

Re: PTC_TENSILE_YIELD_STRESS
I get this message at random times even with sensible material properties. It seems to occur most often when taking an existing material as a starting point, copying it and then editing the copy. I may...

It even happens now and then when you define a new material. No idea what to do about it.
View ArticleCalculate stress intensity factor...?
Dear colleagues, Does any one of you have any "suggested technique"-document, or similar, as for how to set up a stress intensity calculation (i.e. "crack") in Creo Simulate? I thought I had set up an...
View ArticleRe: Radiation heat transfer
Creo Simulate can't model heat transfer like this. As Charles writes, you enter a "heat transfer coefficient" where heat transfer is proportional to temp difference between surface and surrounding...

Just general ramblings if any use at all ... It is difficult enough trying to determine the correct loads for static analyses. Determining heat transfer coefficients, emissivities and thermal...

I agree Charles. How I wish our customers could understand the level of uncertainty involved in heat transfer problems,(or structural problems for that matter) that you need testing to verify input...
View ArticleRe: Material orientation setup
Thanks Erik. I have the material orientation correct but I got a message saying orientation is ignored for isotropic material. Would using the same young's modulus for E1, E2, and E3 give me accurate...
View ArticleRe: Material orientation setup
Hi Randy If you do that, you don't have to do that. To be more clear, if it is correct that E1=E2=E3, than the orientation doesn't matter and you can use isotropic material anbd you don't need a...

Re: Non-symmetric results for symmetric model and load?
my mistake indeed, Well, the SPR is still open and with no news on datecodes for a fix. 'Creo 2 fix planned in mxxx' and 'Creo 3 -' (unknown)

ANSYS - Creo Simulate discrepancy
In a previous discussion I presented a contact example to compare ANSYS with Creo. In that case, both results were credible, and Creo's results was somewhat more realistic, but that was with default...
View ArticleRe: ANSYS - Creo Simulate discrepancy
I found the error! The contacts between bolt heads and plates were "bonded" in the Creo model. With frictionless contacts, the results are more or less idenetical with the ANSYS model. A bit surprising...

After correcting the error in the Creo model, how long did it run before a solution was realized?
