Re: Values of measures from load steps of non-linear analysis
Hi Stig The measures are in the "analysis-name".res file in the results directory.This is an Ascii file that you can read with notepad, or even excel.You get a list of the measure names and then the...

Re: Using Fasteners - Creo Simulate
Guilherme, Here's an explanation on what happens when you enable fix seperation. Notice the deformation plot.

Guilherme, You can't pattern fasteners, but you can copy and paste a fastener along with all of its assigned properties, then just rename the fastener after pasting.

Mark, You stated concerning contact: For multi-body contact with mis-matched surfaces, Split Surface can be enabled (shown below) to split the surfaces in the region of interest. I think this...

I'm trying to do a similar simulation, the tutorial mentions a 6DOF joint, is that the same as a 6DOF rigid link? I'm getting an underconstrained error in my model. Thanks,-Ben
View ArticleRe: Impact Analysis / Drop Test Simulation
Ben, The 6DOF joint needs to be defined in a mechanism analysis. The tutorial above is a 2 part process.First you run a mechanism analysis to get the values and contact areas then you use those...

If acceleration spectrum is known, I would propose a dynamic shock analysis. You would have to create a valid modal analysis model, use it to calculate (a large number of ) normal modes and subject to...

Sorry guys, I found out that the model wasn't considering contact between the plates and the FIX SEPARATION was turn off as well. Sorry for that. Best regards, Guilherme

Re: Fastener with preload for 3 components
What defines how to, "constrain everything properly" depends on what you're after results wise and what you want the joint to capture physics wise. That being said, the most basic method for doing it...
