Re: Help in Mechanism
Hmm i gave it a try but don't know what's wrong with me.This is the flow :1) Cylinder assembled with pin constraint to assembly axis.2) cylinder handle (green)..given pin connection with assembly axis...

Hi Charles, I encountered the same problem. You did not mention you're datecode, but I tested it in M040 and it exists in that version. One of our customers came with the question. I opened a support...

Mark, I just had a moment to play with the 'account for stiffness' check box and move on my methodologies that seem otherwise to be stuck in time. The .rpt does indeed provides 2 sets of measures for...

Agnes, I tried it in M010 and M030. (and Ansys). Let me know what the outcome is. Charles

I'm curious... why do you want to do this in Creo if you can do it in Ansys?

I have been running a fair amount of analyses in Mechanism lately and the average time it takes to run these ranges anywhere from 1.5 to as long as 6 hours. What I don't understand is my CPU usage...

Hi Brian, I'm not familiar with Mechanism, but from my experience using Mechanica I'd suggest that it's busy writing and reading data to and from disk (or network). If you open up Resource Monitor from...

Hi Charles Excellent job.I've encountered similar problems with "forklifting a pallet". friction, no friction, different meshes, timesteps, smooth load application, the works. But no convergence. To...

I have not personally disabled hyperthreading however I will check on the next reboot. Thanks for your feedback!!!

If you set Task Manager to One Graph Per CPU, it should show eight graphs if HT is on or four if disabled.

Eight cores showing, so it does seem very likely that it's one core running flat-out. Personally I prefer the other view, One Graph All CPUs - there you should see a nice flat line showing the total...

Steven I've now seen 3 different models containing contact failing in Creo 3.0, which ran after rebuilding in Creo 2.0It's simply not economically clever to move to Creo 3.0 I've not seen an advantage...

Erik, Are your contact analyses failing due to contact with finite friction? That's what I'm asking.
