hi all, could you tell me if is it possible? SW 2009 Premium. Cylinder model,apply a costrain in the lower face,apply a torque onthe other end. I need to know the angle displacement,instead linear(mm). thanksSolidworksSimulation

I have an assembly here where I want one part rigid. Whendoing so, the mesher keep meshing incompatible mesh. I discoveredthat if I put this pat deformable the mesher mesh compatible?Should it be like that?

I have Solidworks 2009 premium SP2.1 hence i have sumulation,though when i go into connectors there is suppose to be "bearing"as a connection under spring & bolt & it is not there isanyone else missing this feature. It is mentioned in Solidprofessor simulation 2009 & "whats new"publication for 2009 Is anyone else missing this featureSolidworksSimulation

While using Geostar, I noticed a button feature for the pdfmanuals for Cosmosm "CMManuals.pdf" which do not exist on mycomputer (and I cannot find them on the installation disk either).Where can I find a copy of the complete documentation set in pdfformat... ?SolidworksSimulation

Can't grasp the concept behind this error message. Can anyoneexplain what this means? I am using SW 2009. Trying to run a stress test on a plasticpart-error message "Reduce element size Thank you in advance!SolidworksSimulation

Maybe I'm just a newbie but please can somebody help me toexplain how to setup a basic motion. It is a closed tube system with an innerdia of 100mm , the motionthat I want to make is that there is a disc inside the tube with adia of 95mm that follows the tube with a certain flow pressure. Hope somebody help with this problem. SolidworksSimulation

Is it possible to run the simulation on a model alreadymeshed in hypermesh and imported to SolidWorks Simulation. My basicdoubt is if that model is having a mesh anything other than Solidtetrahedral mesh can SolidWorks Simulation handle that?thanksSolidworksSimulation

I was wondering if anyone has done any project with theNitinol material model in Simulation? If so I would be curiousabout some of the material property settings you used, and whetheror not you used the exponential flow rule properties. SolidworksSimulation

I cannot find a manner to display the results (reactionforces) on spring connectors. Only bolt/pin/bearing seem available.Why? ThanxSolidworksSimulation

We like to obtain the forces at a lug of a pressure vessel.However we do not restrain the vessel at the lug but still need toobtain forces at the lug due to internal design pressure etc. Thefree body function seems to be the way to go but it gives us aforce of zero. Please explain how this function works and if there is other way toobtain the forces? SolidworksSimulation

Beautiful. Vectors with a negative magnitude? That should make the design review entertaining. SolidworksSimulation

Hello..... In our assembly line, one of the process is "push down" rivet into final shape. Look at image below : I have tried to apply force in the top of rivet, then also use "large displacement" But I cant get the final result correct as real life. Someone please give me advice on this case ?

It would be nice to get more information during meshing. Athough we get the (not responding) in the window titles we know it's finishing the mesh. Why is this part of mesh cycle using such a tight loop? Could we get more display information during this phase?

At UW-Madison, we have created a software for topology optimization that can read in files created via Solidworks. You can download tthe attached software and watch an intro movie at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpxXTiA1Lyo Send queries and comments to: paretoquery@gmail.com Have fun, Krishnan Suresh Assoc.
