    How to set up drawings attributes in NX3?

    I will like to set up attributes in my model that would automatically populate the drawing title-block for things like drawn by, date, etc. We do not use the master model concept, so the model and the drawings are on the same file. We are currently using NX3.

    How to export IGES file to Rhino 3.0 from NX2?

    I am providing a supplier with IGES files exported from NX2; the supplier is importing the files into Rhino 3.0. He is able to open the files, but the surfaces do not maintain their tangent continuity. Is there any set up I can change from my side to increase the chances of the supplier...

    Silicone Material Model

    Does any body have experience modeling silicone parts in FEA? Would it best to use the Odgen or Mooney-Rivlin material model; or the Standard (Isotropic Linear Elastic) material model? Does anyone have correlated a silicone model with empirical data? Any publications I can consult in the subject?
