I have received an error stating "Unable to allocate memory" when running an FEA on an assembly. It has run for about an hour and a half, but then presents me with this error which causes the simulation to fail. How can I fix this? I have a 64-bit windows with 16GB of RAM and a processor running at 3.7 GHz. SolidworksSimulation

So my simulation begins by milling the part from the bottom... Then finishes drilling the final holes at the top... I want to complete the milling process from the top of the part since the mill is a 2-axis. Any Ideas? SolidworksSimulation

hi, When I perform an H Adaptive Study Solidworks gives me a convergence graph with on the horizontal axis the loop number and on the vertical, Normalized Value. I have a graph that shows no convergence but both the line for von Mises and Resultant Displacement meet at the value zero for the normalized value. What does this mean? SolidworksSimulation

Hello all. Bumped into this shop-floor problem recently and wanted to know how to approach this problem in SimulationXpress. Given below is a picture of cylindrical steel cores more known as spools in metal industry. Considering that the coil weighs approx.

Hi, I performed a static analysis and after the adaptive study ran and gave a solution, suddenly a newly created static study now performed also an h adaptive study without being selected which is quite annoying. Anyone an idea how I can run this without the adaptive study?? SolidworksSimulation

How to Convert Number of cycles into Days / Years ? Dear Everyone, Good day! I am doing a Fatigue Analysis using Linear Harmonic study and getting a Life plot using cycles. Can you help to clarify how to convert number of cycles we get into Years or days ?

I got the following error message (simulation only went to 9%) before failing: The Iterative Solver stopped. Numerical difficulties. (Preconditioning failed) Please check model boundary conditions. No results saved. I'm trying to simulate how the weight affects the stand when a Christmas Tree is placed in the smaller (6 in in diameter) ring.

Hey guys, I am wanting to find out the max force that needed until deflection begins on this part below. Is there a way this can be done using Solidworks simulation? Essentially I want a fixed constrained as shown below. The idea is to apply a force on the highlighted surface in blue and the determine the max force it will take until this part starts to deflect. ‌ Thanks, SolidworksSimulation

I am trying to run an analysis of a container door assembly, and the corner castings keep flying off the model. See below. I have re bonded this ample times and it always seems to "deform" like this. I'm coming to the end of my rope with this any help is much appreciated.

I had a simulation project I was working on yesterday crash, and now the simulation tabs won't load anymore. Simulation tabs loads on other files and earlier versions of this file. Any ideas on how to fix this? It also looks like I could start new simulations on the crashed file, but I have lost all previous work.

I need to define the fixtures and loads for the model attached, it is one half of the pair of scissors. I am thinking of adding a hinge fixture to the axis and a load where the finger would go. I am not sure whatsoever -- how can I model the static analysis for this pair of scissors? All help is appreciated! SolidworksSimulation

Good morning, I´m new here and try to simulate a mixed model with shells and solid parts. In the shell manager are all sheets listet which are going to mesh as shell. Unfortunetly there is un error when I try to mesh the whole assembly: The thickness for one or more shells are not defined! How can I find the shell which is not correctly definded?

Dear Gents, I Designed A Hydrolic Hot Press and everything was OK, while I tried to do Simulation either Static or Thermal I couldn't find any results, it stays for more than 10 Hours in meshing with no results at all. Please tell me if I miss something. Thanks, SolidworksSimulation

I'm simulating tubing in a nuclear steam generator to see the heat transfer characteristics. I know what the flow rate, pressure, and temperature need to be on the inside of the tube, and what the starting temperature and pressure needs to be for the subdomain. I'm not sure how to set it though. Help would be appreciated.

So I am trying to add kinetic friction for the "non-linear dynamic study" on the red circle (on the bottom surface of red circle) ? The way i did is to use contact set feature and input friction ? Is this the correct way to add kinetic friction ? I have attached a picture of what I am talking about and zip file of the simulation. ‌ SolidworksSimulation
