Kingnero, I agree with you when you say that a spline is different from knurling. The approach used in my experience is essentially empirical as you suggested, in the face of expensive prototypes: I would like apply a FEM calculation, if it's possible. The problem that I see in this way is...

Portliner, it seems that you have already perfomed a similar calculation: do you have any model to share?

Hi guys, does anyone know which is the methodology calculation of knurled bushing? In particular, I neeed to calculate the interference fit for transmitting a specified torque through a gear/shaft assembly: should I perform a FEM calculation of pressfit bushing and verify the ammissible torque...

Hallo everybody. How can I measure the distance between two nodes toward a whatever system coordinate in Abaqus CAE? I know there is the "Query" command, but it is not possible select a coordinate system different from global one. By

I mean, how could I obtain smoothing contact surfaces in Abaqus if I have an orphan mesh?

...any suggestion please?

...for example, how could I define appropriately the contact between two coaxial cylinder deformable bodies, one meshed with hexa elements and the other with tetra10 elements?

Hello, I know how to create analytical rapresentation of deformable body native in Abaqus CAE. I need to know how to create a similar rapresentation with orphan mesh. Thank you
