    How add custom pipe diameters into mechanical routing?

    Great job Sven, thank you very much, it will be very useful for me and for all the people in the forum who are interested in mechanical routing with nx, thanks for sharing this information.

    How add custom pipe diameters into mechanical routing?

    Thank you SvenBom for you help, i have done what you mentioned, changing the original files with the dimensions i need, and it is enough for i want to do, i just need a few custom diameters for a simple hydraulic routing. In any rate, if someone know how to add custom parts to nx mechanical...

    How add custom pipe diameters into mechanical routing?

    Hi everyone: That is my question, i want to add my custom diameters into mechanical routing and i still don´t get it. What i have tried is using the utility ss2ptb.exe following the method explained here http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=306020, and i get the file with the extension...

    NOOOOOO NX9 use ribbon interface

    I hope it will be like in solidworks and it will possible choose between ribbon interface and standard interface, i don´t like the ribbon interface too.

    Bolt, rivet modeling with CELAS2 or CELAS1 element??

    Hi: I have seen perform an analysis of a bolted joint with a CELAS2 or CELAS1 (grounded element), and get the forces in the three main directions from de CELAS element (x,y,z direction), but i don´t know how to do this because to configure the celas element, it just can define the stiffness in...

    Eigenfrequencies without any restriction

    Thanks Greg, your answer is what i´m looking for, i saw that analysis in an aerospace company, and in that moment i didn´t understand it. Thanks, again.

    Eigenfrequencies without any restriction

    What i mean is in a dynamic analysis looking for the eigenfrequencies (natural frecuency) without any boundary condition as a displacements constraints, etc.

    Eigenfrequencies without any restriction

    yes, the question is looking for the eigen frequencies without some restriction

    Eigenfrequencies without any restriction

    Has some sense extract the eigenfrequencies of a structure, or mechanical part, without any restriction in displacements?. If so, which is the reason?. I do this question, because i´ve seen do this in a very, very important analysis of a mechanical component in a very, very important company...

    associate surfaces

    Thank you Blas, it is what i needed, thanks again.

    associate surfaces

    My question is how to associate two surface (like in Patran) along its common edge, in order to along this edge, common nodes will be generated, so after generate the mesh, "equivalence" (merge) the nodes duplicated at the same location (like in Patran) getting a node common to both surfaces...

    APDL tutorials

    Hi hubihubi2, This book will help you, "The Finite Element Method and Applications in Engineering Using ANSYS", Erdogan Madenci & Ibrahim Guven, Ed. Springer., explains the use of macros and more about ANSYS APDL.

    create common nodes along of the common edge of two faces

    hi, everyone: in other software like patran, in order to conect two surface sometimes it´s necesary associate the edge of one of them to the other surface so the mesher create nodes in the same position for both surface and finally do equivalence for deleting the duplicates nodes and then the...
