Hi everyone,
I would like to simulate as a start the throw of two dices and want to check how many times I get a certain value from 0 to 12.
I used a while loop (see attachment) but it doesn't work as it never exit the loop. N is the number of throws to try. Y[0,P is a vector, j is an index. Z...
Hi,
I'm looking for the simplest way to find the index of the element of a vector that is closer to a given value.
Suppose the vector is f[i:=i^2 and the value V:40 .
The solution is i=6 as 6^2=36. How to find that i value? Do there is any function doing that? Do you know any trick using the...
Hi,
I have to rotate a disk weighting at about 4 kg, at 12 rev/sec, supporting it from the circunference (dia=300mm). I have to dissipate the minimum possible heat (less than a few W) and work at a temperature of ~ -200 C with dry lubrication. The rotation should keep going maintenance free for...
I found the following problems with MathCAD 11.
I have to numerically integrate a function in the form F(f,k,T)=F(exp(-hf/kT)), where h, f, k and T have their own units. Most of you will have already understood I'm dealing with Planck radiation law, however...
I would prefer to keep working...
Hi,
How to align reference dimensions to a particular directions?
I have a quite irregular assembly (so, I can't use the sketch). I need to show the envelope of the assembly (a concept design) aligned to the 3 main axis.
If I use a reference dimension, it will show the direct (shortest)...
Hi,
I am looking for information about the floppy disk drive technology (yes, the old one): the way data are encoded on the disk, materials and technology disks and heads are made, friction, wearing, lifetime, signal/noise ratio at head/disk level, circuitry for directly reading the signal...
Hi,
I have to import in Solidworks some DXF files I generated with another program (GRASP, a software for antenna design). The drawings represents some mirror dishes.
When I try to File->Open->DXF I get the following message:
__________
'<file name>' is possibly an AutoSolid model.
It...
Hi,
I have a problem with combining bodies.
Inside a part, I created a circle and extruded it as a cylinder. Than I created a tilted reference plan through the cylinder. Than I draw a rectangle on this plane and extruded it as usual, obtaining a box.
Now, I would like to get the intersection...
Hi,
since a while every time I rebuild my drawing a window pop-up and says:
Rebuild errors:
Simulation: This feature had an error in the last update. Edit definition on the feature to correct the problem.
I found no reference to this string on the internet.
I have been experimenting with...
I want to plot a function in an x-y plot.
Do you know of any way to set a different sampling rate without assigning functions value in a vectors? The sampling rate of the function is way too low and the curve looks as a polygonal in a critical part of the function.
Thanks in advance for any idea
While changing one dimension of a part I got into an error.
The problem is that apparently there is no way to go back: if I right click to delete/edit the component, or any other component I can't get anything. Apparently the only way to proceed is to start from scratch, creating cascades of...
Hi,
I recently moved from AutoCAD to Solidworks 2004. I'm not an engineer but a scientist and used it only for short periods (= not a systematic knowledge). I already look to the online topic and I'm currently studying a tutorial.
I have a very basic question I've not been able to solve that...
