So for our model, the springs we have are nonlinear and react differently in tension and compression. We're using SolidWorks/NEiWorks to model and set up analysis, and Nastran for running the analysis. The NEiWorks tech help guy told me that there's no way to specify different values for tension...
I'm relatively new to FEA in general, and completely new to NEiWorks. For the project I'm working on now, I created an assembly, which is basically a giant cabinet resting on springs. When I inputted spring components to connect the cabinet to the bottom plate, and ran analysis, the spring...
