As far as I can see, DXF (already designed geometry) is the only way. I was hoping for something a little cleverer via the framework extension.

What does the independent mode mean? I'm a newbie to Simulate. Thanks Koen

Dear Don Anderson, Hope you have defined contact interfaces for newly added components as well defined "generate compatible mesh" option. Regards,Shiva

Is your model regenerated? Are you meshing your model (and saving the mesh) proior to running your analysis? If you open the "Run Settings", what do you have selected under the "Elements" section?

What do you get from Review Total Load? Could you post a screenshot of the Review Total Load window after calculation? I'm not sure what your concern is about using a symmetry constraint, and I don't...

In WF4 it's in the Info menu. Don't know about Creo - have you tried the command search?

Re: How to put constraint on threads...
OK - so you're using two opposing loads, rather than a load and a constraint. I also notice that you've deleted the symmetry cut you had earlier. Try setting the model up using a 3.6° cyclic symmetry...

This is cotinue with my previous post. The stress in the first groove is at 300K psi but on the second one it is 22K psi. The stress at the first groove is definitely incorrect. How can I fix this?...

What is it that you are trying to learn from the analysis? Do you need information on the thread root stress or are you looking for a way to pass the load into the shank/rod portion of your fastener?...

I need to prove that the highest stress at the tie rod is below the yield strength of the material (36K). Since the highest stress would be at the root of the thread, so I think I am looking for the...

When using any form of symmetry, you need to apply only the load that acts on the section of the part that you're actually analysing. You're applying the full 825 000 lbf to a small fraction of the rod...
