Re: simMechaices link matlab to creo
It seems to me, SimMechanics is from MathWorks and the Pro/TOOLKIT application that works as the interface is also maintained by them.The message (being a Pro/TOOLKIT message) indicates that there is a...

View Article"You may not enter Creo Simulate with this model."
Hello All, I'm trying to test a certain part, but everytime I try to start Creo Simulate, a pop-up will occur that says, "This model failed to regenerate. You may not enter Creo Simulate with this...

Todd, Most likely you have a external reference that is failing. Could be copy geom, feature that was created at a higher assembly level, external merge, etc. (simulate will sometime force a complete...

How do I measure the torque output of a gear in Mechanisms?
Hi First off I have used gear connection as opposed to a cam follower. I have my output angular velocity but I also need the output Torque and I don't know how to analyse this? Thanks for the help,...

Re: User need help with Simulation setup.
Jonathan, I would try forced displacement analysis. This converges more easily, and yes, you can create a reaction force measure that tracks the force you need to apply. LDA+contact+enforced...

Thanks, Mats! I'm working on running this version now. I can't easily use displacements to assemble it as I want to test the disassembly mode (I'd presumably have to create several enforced...

Re: User need help with Simulation setup.
I have not seen your model but from the description it sounds like you are trying to model some kind of lip seal that "flips over" as you reverse the motion direction. Is that correct? I've tried to...

Re: User need help with Simulation setup.
Hi Mats, No, it's nothing that complex - just a push-fit where the cavity is slightly larger than the entrance, so the seal has to be deformed to either fit or remove the 'harder' component. I'm...
View ArticleRe: User need help with Simulation setup.
Here's a seal that undergoes a deformation cycle. The seal contact is simply modeled as a constraint. I had some convergence issues at the tip; there is a singularity. So I made a surface region with...

Thanks, the 'dense mesh and quick check' idea is a good one. I'll try that later this afternoon.

Wow, I didn't expect this to be possible in Mechanica (or whatever its called these days). Just a thought: since the contacts in Mechanica are frictionless (I trust Mats' statement), then making a...

Hi I am involved in FE analysis of an assembly in which one of the component is made out of C45 hardened to 50 HRC, Now I struck with creating a material with hardness properties to it. I strongly...

You hardening is presumably done by heat treatment.This only changes the material strength. It does not change the Youngs modulus nor Poissons ratio. Most of the time you will be doing elastic analyses...

Re: User need help with Simulation setup.
OK, it's now working fairly well. Localized Mesh Refinement is pretty much guaranteed to prevent convergence, whilst SPA works some of the time. Quick Check is obviously the most likely to work. I've...

Patrick, It's called Creo Simulate (formerly Pro|Mechanica, and before that, Mechanica). The original Mechanica, created by a company called RASNA, Inc., was aquired by PTC, and PTC integrated it with...
