Torque and centrifugal loads
Hi, I want to simulate an air plug which makes the distribution in a motor.This plug is in the cylinder head and two bearings at each end hold it in place.Thanks to a chain on a sprocket at one end,...

If I understand this correctly, the component isn't transmitting any torque - it's just being twisted against its own inertia, presumably backwards and forwards at some fairly high frequency. If you...

Re: Analysis of wooden frame
Hi,There is ofcourse. But it all depends on how accurate analysis will be. Depends a lot on the way you plan to connect wooden beams and quality of wood. Its not exactly homogeneous like steel. Ive...

Davor has the right answer here. Mechanica supports orthotropic material definitions, which you could use for wood. That being said, wood can be difficult to model and you won't be able to account for...
