Real versus actual measurments?
I am new to SimSolid. It seems very capable and has a lot of features I have not explored. But I have one area of concern, how does it relate to real world experience. Below is simple pipe: * 47” long * wall thickness of .065” * Material is as below, Chromoly steel. Note that I get very similar results with AISI 4140 steel…

Bolts resultant force
Hi I have a question. I am making a linear structural analysis for some parts and the results of forces on bolts are strange. Only 1 bolt out of 16, has significantly bigger force. It's weir, cause all bolts are same size, material nad theoretically they should have the same load as they are at same height of a cylindrical…

SimSolidで落下解析にトライ
はじめに SimSolidはCADデータを読み込めばメッシュ作成することなく迅速に解析できます。 しばしば、SimSolidで落下解析はできないか、という問い合わせをいただくことがあります。 そこで、Radiossで落下解析を実施し、剛体壁の反力を荷重として、SimSolidで過渡応答解析を実施し、応力分布を確認します。 ※前に剛体壁反力の1/2を適用としていましたが、誤りのため、訂正させていただきます。 本格的な落下解析をする前のあたりづけとして使うことを目的とします。 右側の添付ファイルに使ったファイルがあります。 解析モデル 以下のようにスマートフォンのカバー2部品を固着接触したものを対象としています。…

Parts that cross others in a separating contact
Hi all, I have a simulation assembly, where I have several parts pushing a tubes (with an separating contact, with a 0,15 of friction coeficient). The tubes are fixed, and the other moves sliding throw 2 guides and for some reason, this part cross the fixed part. In this assembly, I have 12 equal parts doing the same, but…

Why don't the signs for connection-level stress in the exported CSV file and those displayed in SIMSOLID match?
Hello, I also noticed another bug on the signs, when I export the csv of the efforts at the level of the connections, the signs on the CSV file and on SIMSOLID are not the same: So, where is the truth? Sincerely

Apply Remote Load- import using CSV - Non Circular shapes
I have more than 50 Remote load on my structure at different locations. Few of the shapes are circular and few are rectangle and polygon Is there an option to create spot weld with csv file for non circular shapes. Currently simsolid new version 2024.1 also only supports circular shapes. Creating a non circular is a…

-How to impose a stiffness and block the degrees of freedom? What is the default stiffness? And what happens if we set the displacement to 0?
Hello, I want to impose a stiffness and block some DOF as a boundry condition but there is only grounded bushing which permit to do it, even i set up grounded bushing the simulation won't turn due to low constraints. I want to impose those boundry conditions.

How to fix low relative volume problem?
Hi everyone, As shown in picture. I try to simulate for modal analysis but i cannot solve since the model contain "low relative volume" part. But i cannot remove this part as it is crucial part of the structure as it is one of the main structure for roof and AC unit installation. Please suggest how to solve this problem.…

Importing Revit Geometry in Altair Inspire, SimSolid and HyperMesh
In this video we will examine how we can export 3D Geometry created in Autodesk® Revit® to a STEP file. By exporting to STEP we can then import that fully featured geometry into Altair's Inspire, SimSolid, Hypermesh and more, for a traditional FEA, or mesh-free simulation without the need for any geometry simplification.

SimSolidでの連続解析(固有値解析)
SimSolidにて連続解析を行えます。 今回はボルト軸力を与えてから固有値解析を例として進めていきます。 ※注意点 下図記載の通り、連続解析はAdvancedのみの対応です(v2024の対応表)。 また、材料非線形、幾何学的非線形(増分荷重)は未対応です。 ・設定手順 まず添付の Hanger Beam_bolt_force.ssp をダウンロードします(左記のモデル名クリックでもダウンロード可)。 このモデルはボルト軸力を与えたモデルです(v2024にて解析しています)。 プロジェクトツリーにてボルト/ナット締結をダブルクリックすると下図のように確認できます。 次に固有値解析を設定していきます。…

How the yield stress is calculated from the stress and strain curve imported in Simsolid
To perform the non-linear structural analysis for some specific material, I imported the stress and strain curve on the material properties window. Then, the elastic modulus and the yield stress are automatically calculated from the curve imported. After the curve is imported, I can edit the elastic modulus, but cannot…
