STRESS ANALYSIS ON RACING CAR SEAT !!!
STRESS ANALYSIS ON RACING CAR SEAT !!!
(OP)
Hello All,
I am new to this site i was looking for help in solidworks 2008 cosmosexpress. I drew a racing car seat in solidworks 2008 and put four bolts on the bottom and 2 on the top (back support). I need to analyse the stresses on the seat but everytime i click on cosmosexpress i get an error message saying that i need to define a motion analysis first. This is my first time using this software and if any of you knows a way i could do this stress analysis, i would much appreciate it.
Thanks

However, you will only get an idea of something quite far from the real situation with cosmos express for this and for most other analysis. Consider closly to upgrade to the cosmos / simulation package. This allows you to perform more realistic analysis and get more accurate results, if your input is correct.
Will you not need to include the supporting structure behind the seat to get a valid result here? (Unless it is very stiff and much stiffer than the seat?)
Last and as above - simplify the structure and use a FBD to get out a result on your paper. Then analyse and compare if you analysis make sense.
Best of luck.
