    S1111: insufficient Virtual Memory Problem

    Hi, i am receiving a S1111: insufficient Virtual Memory Failure. i have read thread825-135347 and have followed the steps suggested by dcmacs: 1. Set DECOMPMETHOD to the PCGLSS solver. 2. Set SPARSEITERMODE to 3. This uses the least memory and but you may not get SPC forces, not sure. 3...

Any suggested heat treatments prior to forming/bending? can it be done? Maybe i can substitute 7005 with a silica...

    Mechanica Motion Compiler Setup

    I just wanted to know if anyone out there has figured out how to use Borland C++ Builder 6 to compile mechanica motion studies. see, the problem is, is that the Borland compiler costs $130 CAD and the only supported compiler (Microsoft Visual C++) comes only as a C++ designing suite and costs...

    Intent Manager or Sketcher

    Doing a bit of a poll here. I work for a large company, who explicitly states that their Pro/E users be trained in Sketcher (not intent manager). Though Sketcher (old style, pre-2000i2) forces the user to strengthen all dims and forces him/her to incorporate design intent, i do not see the...
