    ANSYS APDL Problem

    Hi I am trying to run a static model and get the strain energies. However I have faced an error. The requested SEND data is not available. The PRNSOL command is ignored. What does it mean and how can I avoid it? Thank you

    Rotational Displacement

    Hi If I put my all dimensions in SI units (mm) what is the unit of the resulting rotational displacements? (Degrees or Radians) Thank you

    fatal error 9994 BULKPM

    Hi I have a model made by beams elements. When I perform a linear static anaysis (Sol 101) everything seems to be correct. But as I change the solution type to sol 103 I face fatal error 9994 (BULKPM) Do you have any idea what is wrong with the model? Thank you

    connecting beams

    I am trying to model a bus frame using beam elements. As you may see in the picture I have prepared the beams and BC and loading but since beams are not connected to each other, the members fly off and analysis leads to no results. Do you know how I might connect ends of beams together so they...

    Contact Force on certain locations in ADAMS

    Here is the adm file Thanks in advance ! !-------------------------- Default Units for Model ---------------------------! ! ! defaults units & length = meter & angle = deg & force = newton & mass = kg & time = sec ! defaults units & coordinate_system_type = cartesian &...

    Contact Force on certain locations in ADAMS

    In that case I would need to define or move the contact marker, which I would appreciate it if you could tell me how to do so :D

    Contact Force on certain locations in ADAMS

    Hi Greg In that case the amount of force that has been measured here is exactly at which constraint? Is it at the revolving joints? or on the whole contact area?

    Contact Force on certain locations in ADAMS

    Hi I have a question about measuring contact forces in ADAMS Imagine we have box falling on a plate. When I measure the contact force (clicking on Measure for Contact) it gives me one value for contact force (say Fy for example) what if I want to find out the contact force on a certain location...

    Saving the Patran file in different formats

    Hi Guys I have calculated a new quantity on each node of a meshed model. Now I need to show the distribution of these values on my model. I am trying ti use Matlab to depict this distribution but it seems that Matlab could only read mesh in these formats: OFF, PLY, SMF and WRL. How could I save...

    Two question about Patran/Nastran- Matlab

    Hi I have two questions and I would appreciate your help. 1) How could I get the exact number of elements? whether in f06 file or in Patran it self? 2) I am trying to write Matlab code that could perform the following task: Imagine I have a structure (say a plate) I would fix one side of this...

    Load Path Analysis

    Hi I am trying to use Patran/Nastran to draw the load path in a structure. Has any body done that before? More specifically, How could we make patran to show the direction of stress trajectories?

    Error

    Hi This the first time I am working with Nastran while training, I tried to run the truss1 sample But After running the software when I check the f06 output file I see this error: *** USER FATAL MESSAGE 9994 (BULKIN) First Field Violation near line 20 First Field Parent...
