    NASTRAN - MFLUID virtual mass

    Hi all, how can i obtain the amount of considered added mass in the analysis by the MFLUID to my structure in a dynamic analysis. I guess i have to ask with some diag or param and then see the output in the f06. But which one? So let's say i have a floating object in water, and i want to...

    Meshing multiple solid bodies interacting

    hi all, i have some issues modelling a solid mesh onto solid geometry. The imported geometry is a STEP file, with multiple solid bodies that are close to each other. My problem is that when i generate the solid mesh the meshes between two solids are different, so the model is detached into...

    ANSYS export file for NASTRAN/PARTAN input

    hi all, anyone know the most apropiate way to make an export file from ANSYS to import it into PATRAN ... NASTRAN format. That i mean with the minimal looses in terms of geometry or physical properties. The most important is that imports the whole model shell/beam elements. Ty in advance for...

    Export from ANSYS to MSC Nastran

    hi all, I'd like to know what is the most apropiate way to export a FEM model from ANSYS to import it in Nastran (Patran), without loosing too much model information like geometry or physical properties. For any suggestion thx in advance, Frluga

    IMPLAUSIBLE problem

    hi Greg, there are two things regarding the stress strain curve you made. 1. last two point in the table should be like that, example: 0.039 - 470 ; 0.08 - 471 2. did you set in the field options "Linear Extrapolation"? For the rotation problem for tet elements. Solids in general doesn't have...

    Intriguing NASTRAN output vector

    forgot to tell you, those vectors are the stress vectors into the plane without any shear. So you rotate them in the direction to obtain zero shear. In use for some fatigue analysis for example.

    Intriguing NASTRAN output vector

    you should see max and min principal in the stress results in Patran. Not sure tho how to find them into the f06 print. Just select the options in the stress submenus for marker/tensor.http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=23c364e5-80d0-4940-b4ad-ea357428ac7e&file=maxp2.jpg

    NASTRAN CBEAM Offsets

    hi TDI, it depends how you modelled the rib web. If you made it high as the total height of the beam ... the offset should be -30mm.

    Inertia Relief Analysis of Nastran

    hi there, i'm also balancing the model with INREL, -2. My question is; where i can see the INREL output?. It is in the f06 file .... but what exactly i have to watch to understand the ammount of unbalance, the applied acceleration, to my model with the INREL param -2. Thx for any answer, Frluga...
