I have in the past used Visual Basic 6 to create both Active X controls and .exe files for use in creating various calculators to post onto websites but with the advent of Visual Basic 2005 was wondering how this is done with that software. The microsoft website talks about the need for Visual...
Does anyone know where I may find some stress relaxation curves for epoxy coating materials of any sort. I am trying to analyze the loosening of a clamping bolt compressing on an epoxy coated steel surface. Thanks,

Hi,
I need to find a hydrologist in the Southern California area to work as an expert witness consultant on a large water pipe failure. The main issues to cover are standard pressure test methods for pipe systems and flange assembly design issues. Any tips, suggestions or leads for experts in...
Thanks,
I had considered something like that but was somewhat concerned about whether linked computers could send viruses that way. Also I was wondering if the connection speed would drastically reduce the computing time. I also need to look into issues with the program software as to doing...
I have tried marketing letters and trade magazine articles to promote my engineering services. Typically in a fairly well targeted mailing campaign if you send 500 to 1000 letters you may grab one prospect that results in a project. Similar for magazine articles, one trade article may get you...
Due to the run time required for some of my mechanical event simulation FEA I have been looking into renting CPU time on an external computer cluster Grid. I wanted to see if anyone has any success in doing something like this and get some advice and thoughts on doing this. So far I have...

I wanted to check to see if anyone has experience in the use of weldless, Uni-Flange type, setscrew flanges on fusion bonded epoxy coated pipes. I was considering using one on a 12in pipe exposed to steady water pressure of 85 psi with some infrequent minor pressure pulsation up to perhaps...
Sam,
I noticed that as of late supercomputer services are arising wherein one can run their application on a remote supercomputer to speed up analysis time. As an example IBM has setup their supercomputer Blue Gene to be available for CPU time rent. Do you know if Algor software will be...
Does anyone know if Algor V19 software can run on a cluster of computers? I was thinking this would be good way to speed up the analysis of large models?
Phil
Thanks for all the tips so far. We have the connector and sockets work vended out. I will see if I can get more specs on the sockets and pins and some more info on the molding process. Do you think the molding temperature is causing some socket shape distortion or the parrallenes of the...
Scott,
We will probably replace the pin and sockets as a set. Right now we are trying to understand the exact cause of failure and select a new pin/socket product for future units so that know we won't get this problem again, thanks again,
Phil
Would a heavily used connector design normally call for a socket with perhaps 3 internal prongs and/or prongs with greater potential spring travel? This D shaped socket barrel appears at first glance to be very sucepticble to over bending and thus loosening of the contact. Furthermore would a...
