Re: FEM analysis of a spring
Giulio, If you introduce the contacts near the ends of the springs, the deformation might become more symmetric. But as mentioned, it is more difficult to get a nonlinear analysis to converge, as the...

It looks as if you have 2 colours in the stress plot legend. If the stress level is even and at/near a colour interface some areas will be one colour, other will have another colour. If you change the...

I've done as you said.I've refined the mesh, removed the plasticity, done the quick check.

Cool animation! It looks as if the spring's contact with itself would prevent this bending of the spring, at least to some degree. So this would be the next step I think... I'm not sure Creo Simulate...

Hi Patrick,Good job explaining the situation- I think your explanation helped me to better understand what's going on. When I look at the stress values at the surface of the free end, most of them are...

Hi Mats,You are correct- at the color interface between green and yellow the stress value is 0, and for most of the free end surface, the stress is very close to 0. So that's what causes the...

If you want just a fastener anslysis, this can still be done in Creo 2 with the advanced fastener tool (axial, shear, and bending). If you want a multi-body contact, bolt shank in contact with the...

Hi Denis.I've looked the file you have attached: there are the standard formulas for the springs.In the chapter named "Flambage" it discussed the buckling of the spring and gives the coefficient from...

It seems you are doing research on Creo/Simulate behaviour.... I doubt anyone has looked into this more closely than you have. A few remarks:* You have fully constrained the sides of the bottom plate....

Sounds interesting... good luck! I wonder whether something can be done by assuming equivalency of current flow and heat flow... can you first model the current distribution using a thermal analysis...

Hi Patrick, Thanks for the notes. I would not expect an even pressure distribution, both contacting surfaces are unconstrained and elastic. Ignoring friction for a moment, the contact pressure...

Hi Jonathan, thanks for your reply. Concerning the equivalency of current flow and heat flow, I had thought to that kind of analysis you suggested also, but what I realized in this case is that a...
