    Advanced simulation / Results / Annotation

    Hello, please do you know if it is possible to adjust accuracy (number of digits shown behind decimal point) in the NX postprocessing annotations? Thanks a lot! Honza

    FEA: Node-to-node contact

    Hello, I'm looking for node to node contact in NX Nastran. I've found CGAP elements, but I dont't know how to work with it excactly. Do you have any experiences with them? I've managed to run a very simple model, that runs with CGAP elements instead of surface to surface contact and results...

    Acceleration_NX9

    Hello, I need to simulate stress during manipulation with some parts. So I have to apply an acceleration of 5G to the whole assembly in the certain direction. In the acceleration dialog box I set the option Whole Model- Magnitude and Direction. It is mandatory to set scaling in the acceleration...

    surface contact side

    Thank you kapmnit, I have switched surface normal (I can see it thanks to the backface culling), but the contact arrows stay still in the same direction. Even if I was trying to change top/bottom in the region settings. So my problem lasts :(

    surface contact side

    Hi, I have created a simple example (attached picture) of Face contact. I would need to flip the contact side of the upper sheet. It should be able to through the selecting top/bottom in the surface dropdown menu of regarding region dialog box isn't it? But the contact side is still the same...

    Surface exactly between two other surfaces

    Is it possible to export XYZ (or cylindrical) coordinate data of two surfaces to some spreadsheet eg. Excel? How could I do it? I have found a thread about it, but I did not succeed... (http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=164205) Then I could count a point cloud of the requested...

    Surface exactly between two other surfaces

    I have a stator blades model of a turbine and I need to create computational model of the part of air channel around one blade for Fluent. Sample - http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=5a1718a7-d0ec-4ed4-8854-671b2f920433&file=kanal.PNG So I want to divide a space between blades...

    Surface exactly between two other surfaces

    I have already made a solid from the space between two contiguous blades. - http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=a068997b-e6a2-49e6-a437-2a93c98fe2aa&file=solid.PNG One point of the required surface is in the following picture. It has to be in the middle of the arc between two...

    Surface exactly between two other surfaces

    Hi, I would need to create a new surface, which would be located exactly between two other surfaces. Concretely surface between two blades. Illustrating images: - http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=9db9f205-acef-4e3b-868a-a98d28605e98&file=zepredu.PNG -...

    broken view

    Hi, could you help me, how to create Broken view? When I make a boundary, everything disappears except the area into this boundary. It could be reverse. There is a 5th button, which propably solves the problem, but it still keeps gray. I use NX 7.5 Thanks for your advices.

    some beginners questions

    Just one question: 5) How to fix surface finish symbol to a line in drawing. It works only when there is a leader otherwise the symbol stays on the same place after moving a view. I tried to set associativity to the view, but the symbol became smaller..? Thanks

    some beginners questions

    cowski: I didn`t try Sweep along guide. It works. There is a subtract choice.. But Swept has better options as regards a section orientation. So I create a sheet and trim a body. But then I don`t know how to get rid of the sheet. That`s the reason why I trimmed the sheet. Anyway the sheet still...
