I have an FEA application that requires spring elements for accurate analysis. I am evaluating different programs at this point for ease of use and functionality. Could someone here tell me at what product level does the latest release of Cosmos offer spring elements? Cosmos Designer, Cosmos...
Can someone tell me what ASME standard stesses are?
I am showing someone some FEA results as vonMises and principle stresses, but they said they would like to see ASME standard stresses. They suggested that these stresses would be bending or tensile stresses in a cross section of a part.

I am considering laminating some table tops (steel plate top) with 1/4" or 1/2" thick UHMW (see McMaster items 84945K815) to slide heavy dies across. The dies weigh about 2000# each. I was thinking of using an adhesive to mount the UHMW.
