STAINLESS STUD-TORQUE
STAINLESS STUD-TORQUE
(OP)
Hello,
I am very new to Pro-Mechanica, about to go on a course but eager to get started. I have what Im sure you will call a very simple analaysis I want look at in Mechnica.
I have a stainless stud which we have used for some year but we have now put a notch 3/4 way down the stud. I want to see how this will effect the stud when it is done up.
One end will be constratined and torque will be applied to the other end.
How can I do this.
Regards
Brett

RE: STAINLESS STUD-TORQUE
You have to create a moment load using total load at point.
Add a datum point at the centre of the surface where you want to apply the torque, then as you add the load to the surface, under the distribution pull down (under advanced) choose "Total Load at Point", pick the point and enter your moment load value. If you click Preview, you should see that the load is a torque load.
RE: STAINLESS STUD-TORQUE
So do I apply the load to the bar surface or the end face?. And what does the torque load symbol look like?.
