    Elfini, CatiaV5 virtual spring

    Hello guys. I need your help. I am trying to built a virtual simulator. I want to put on a solid (baseplate) part, some 500 virtual spring at certain compression values to simulate different soil or ground compaction. This way, the penetration (in depth)of some machinery imprints in the soil can...

    Modeling of honeycomb panels, CATIAV5R14

    Hello Configurator. I need to see the stress points at the adherence contact where the epoxy weld will be made/glued. I was thinking of a flat sketch then thick extruded ? What do you think ? Louis

    Modeling of honeycomb panels, CATIAV5R14

    Hello again. I am trying to model honeycomb panels with aluminium material to it. Is there a way to make a sort of "smaller file" ... Problem; honeycomb size about 0.188inch wall thichness 0.010inch panel thickness 0.5inch, 13inches X 65inches. File is mega big when changing parameters values...

    WHICH HARDWARE ???

    Hello again. About best possible hardware... I am basically modeling on CATIAV5 then I run analysis with the Structural Analysis module, Elfini solver. Also and the slowest to run is the HBR or human modeling solution that makes manikin with full degree of freedom at all joints. So imagine when...

    WHICH HARDWARE ???

    Hello. I need to know if one of you can help me selecting the best up to date hardware for intensive finite element analysis on CATIAV5. I am in the composite molding business. Most parts we produce do not have a single straight line and are of orthotropic material nature. It takes quite a...

    Human posture analysis, CatiaV5

    Hello Azrael. What I am trying to do is a static posture analysis of a simple dummy standing with wide stance (about 22 inches between feet). At first I do create a dummy and move the limbs in the desired position. Then I switch workbench to Human posture analysis. Normally, I should be able to...

    tangency constraint on spline, in sketch

    Hello, I a CatPart sketch, I am having a hard time just to put tangency constraints between the end points of multiple points spline and arcs at both ends. I tried many ways ( different ordering of constraints) but the sketch still turns red. There are only minimum constraints without...

    orthotropic material

    No... it never worked. All the numbers I have in this orthotropic material setting window are correct. Someone on another forum replied that Catia is not performing non-linear analysis. I do not know if he right but if there is no utility for this orthotropic thing why do they put it there ! . I...

    Constraints, Assembly design for FEA

    Hello again. I am trying to put contact or coincidence assembly constraints on curved surfaced, this for FEA in structural analysis. How can I acheive full contact between surfaces without one flat area? The thick surfaces solid (in part design) are all made one over the other. From one...

    SolidWorks to Catia and vice versa !

    Hello. I need to know if there is a way to import CatiaV5 part files in Solidwork2003 along with all the creation features in the three. (parts where originally made in Catia) I tried many save-as format but only the surfaces results are shown. Any suggestion Lofo

    CatiaV5R13 to Solidworks 2003

    Hello again. I need to convert part files so they can be worked out with solidworks 2003. I need the features and all creations in the three to be also availlable in the solidworks three. I tried many format but I only get results of parts without the features. How can I do the transfert with...
