Re: Access previous simulations in simulate lite,
Damian, all Lite modules have their limitations. The purpose of these modules is to show user the specific functionality, only. You can ask PTC Support, if you want to know SImulate Lite limitations....

If you check "Account for Stiffness", and enter the desired preload, the computed preload values will be in the Run Summary file.

I want to compare scans from CMM software in IGES with the original profile on pro e. I think it has to be done by using sensitivity analysis. Can anybody guide me how to perform it?

Hi Steven, The summary file gives fastener tensions from the baseline analysis (original preload), the 'Base Analysis to scale Fastener Preloads' then it gives the fastener tensions 'Analysis with...

View ArticleApplying Rotational Constraints?
How do you apply rotational constraints when doing the structural simulation in Creo? I'm using rack and pinion from power steering system for the simulation.
View ArticleRe: Applying Rotational Constraints?
Use a pin constraint. The 3rd entry is an optional rotation constraint. Use two planes to define the angle. These planes must be parallel to the pin axes.

Thank you for the answer, but it's a little confusing. Do you mind explaining step by step in detail. Sorry for the trouble.

I'm revisiting my analysis from my discussion "Large Deformation FEA". Though I received a lot of useful info, I'm still struggling to get accurate results. Attached is the file I'm analyzing as a...

I may have misread your question. I was thinking constraining the parts in an assembly, not providing rotational stress for analysis. I only have the simulate light version, and I do not see...

There's a couple different ways you can do this:You can apply a Total Load at Point (TLAP), define a measure to calculate the rotation of the point that the TLAP is referenced to, solve the model, look...

Re: Nonlinear Contact Analysis
My $0.02 is to avoid including contact if you can given that you're doing a LDA. Contact with LD formulation is somewhat new to Simulate and isn't the most robust. Another issue with this model (when...

Jose,If you only want an animation you could try this:I assembled the blue part to the orange one, and the green part to the blue one with planer constraints. Then, in the Snapshot dialog box I did a...

Thanks again, Shaun. It seems like eventually I could get an accurate result with methods like you've done, with more fine tuning. Looking at the bigger picture for me: I'm using this 'simple' test in...

Thanks for your contribution, but it doesn´t suit my needs. I know that I may create the animation with snapshots or exploded views. That´s how I have been doing it so far. But I need to add some...

Sometimes it is easier to simply stitch together several animation. It is also fairly easy to timeline different servo motor actions. If each action is unique along the timeline, then this is the...
