MSC Marc: Table Formulas
Hello there, I am relatively new to MSC Marc / Mentat and I'm having some difficulties applying a load using a spatial distribution. Since the load is dependent on the nodes' x0 and y0 coordinates, I attempted to apply the load using a table, containing 2 independent variables (x0, and y0)...- LtSnikch

RBE3 connections for multiple source and target nodes
Hi, I'm working on a model using Siemens UGS/NX7.5 Nastran, where a solid is supported by various small cylinders. To model this, the cylinders are modeled as spring elements, and the supporting area of each cylinder is represented on the solid as a seperate circular surface. I've used TRI6...- LtSnikch

"Manual" element creation (for large number of elements)
Hello all, I've been using NX Nastran for quite some time now. However, I've run into an issue which I can't seem to resolve, so I was hoping for some input. My goal is to create a number of individual 2d elements on a polygon surface (so, not necessarily in contact with each other). Later... -
Advanced non-linear (601) contact analysis
Hello all, For my graduation project I'm required to perform a non-linear transient contact analysis at this point. I have used NX rather much but not for this type of advanced non-linear solution and I'm running into a bit of a problem. My model consists fully of solid elements, it is neatly...
