Direction of fastener shear force
Hi, Is there any way to tell the direction of the shear forces acting on a fastener? We have magnitude but no components. Thanks

Hello, I try to define a spring using "special spring" in a static analysis. My problem is the coupling of the translation and rotation / force and moments. The entries of the matrix are KTXX, KTXY,...

Are you refering to the advanced fastener tool or using a solid fastener?

The example was provided by PTC technical support engineer Mark Fahlbeck, case # 12121958. I talked to Mark about this, and how would you be able to get the direction of the shear load based on the...

How about trying 3 very light (almost no force) Spring to Ground Constraints to give the assembly inital stability so Simulate has a starting point to work from? Don

David, Welcome to the forum. You want to analyze the structure in the raised position due to a gravity load. Since the region of interest is the frame and not the hook, you could model the hook has a...

Steven, Since the frame CG is not centered under the hook, would the ridged links hide true stress at the tie in points on the frame?He may be trying to gain insight into how much load one tie in point...
View ArticleRe: How to constrain a suspended load?
The purpose of my simple analysis was to show that you can remove the constraint off the frame and use a gravity load. I think David had the bottom of the frame constrained. I don't know the region...
View ArticleRe: How to constrain a suspended load?
David,I think there is a simple solution. I do not see any elements at the hook end (point) of your rigid link. A rigid link is not an element so you need something to resolve that. My preference...

Thanks for the welocme and the helpful suggestions guys. I initially tried to simulate the slingset using springs, but found rigid links prefereable as I could attach them to the padeye hole surfaces....

Absoultely correct Don, I need to analyse the stresses with the COG directly below the hook.

James, I tried attaching a v low stiffness spring from the hook to the top surface of the structure but it failed to sufficiently constrain the model. Thanks

Beam Resultant only works for beam elements; your model is meshed with solid elements (I'm guessing). If you want to find the recation forces at the constraint, then you'll need to define a Measure for...
