In some cases this is not a problem but in some it is. My solution to this is to use Salome for meshing if any of the internal meshers fail. I work with ZW3D 2020 to generate CAD.

Thanks Victor. I have about 550 GB free space on the system drive so if the folder gets created in there it shoulds have enough space for 4-5 milion nodes - my model has 2,5 milion nodes and it solved before with different material. I rerun the mo…

It's so nice there are quite few option of the solvers. I experimented once without success with: 3)** MKL CCX as in 2) but also install Intel oneAPI Base Toolkit from https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/base-toolkit-do…

Thank you Victor, Mine error was P-3. Sounds like matrix issue, sufficient space on system drive got rid of the problem. I will try to use above description for size problems. Thanks.

I've just spoted that Solving matrix also uses system space.

I must have had it then in global coordinate system before so it went smooth. It would be great to be able to create a vector by two nodes, or one node and selecting direction by one of 3 axies (XYZ). I have seen quite usefull tools in Hyper Mesh an…

Hi Victor. Options 2 and 3 work but they are a bit longer in comparison to option 1 which worked for me in previous installations. Maybe I am doing something wrong this time or it is a bug. Please have a look at the attached YT links. P.S. I kno…
-
Well I didn't mean optimization, just isolating an area with some high gradients to be able to refine it and run analysis once again to get quickly smooth results without reruning whole model. Diing it once is ok but reruning it 2 times to get conve…

I have installed 2.10 from bConverged and couldn't perform PipeClip analysis from Mecway's samples folder done in Mecway v4 and v5. Comming back to 2.8 bConverged made it working once again. Is it just me? Thanks
-
Indeed, it could be usefull for everyone using Mecway and for the product itself. With regards to trust in the tool, it should always be less than 1. Wise people validate analysis by other means (standards, experiments...) and vice-versa. Would yo…

I meant more software functionality than accuracy, NAFEMS doesn't explain how to model plane fuselage to achieve the same effect on two different software with different capabilities. I have such example which I was hoping to post ages ago but I wou…

Mecway5BETA with CCX 2.8p2. Hyper-elastic analysis with Moony-Revlin material model. 3 contacts, one of them selfcontact, symetry constraints and rigid body motion. Reference only as 1000 node limit used so results can't be treated as correct. 2 stu…
-
Hi Victor, I have recently came back to that O-ring example and have added selfcontacting element faces. RIght now I have 3 CCX contact features in the tree and there is no way to assign their names. Is it possible to include such option? More conta…
-
Thanks a lot I will have a play later to get this better. I have decreased the timestep so maybe this will lead to better solution... I will see. Thanks for help.
-
OK, my v5beta version generates quite strange output -not really realistic. I must admit I haven't spend a lot of time on it and I run out of 1000 nodes which doesn't probably help as well with regards to elements quality. It is Hyperelastic non lin…

Oh! I forgotten, there is workarround this (move+copy) but it it requires a bit of typing and thinking (time spending) to choose cylindrical coordinate system when it comes to such geometries. Personally I think it could enhance user interaction.
-
Me again Victor, I just realised that all of the manipulation geometry tools have copy optino but scale doesnt. I just hoped to do scale and copy in one step and not will have to work arround. From user point of view sounds like easy and usefull cha…
-
Thanks for clarification. Adaptive refinement sounds very good! I will get quite then, not to disturb you
-
I am sorry I am doing it now and not few months ago but life was too fast for me to remember... I have spoted that Electrical Energy Density in 3D Static Analysis is shown in [Pa], SI units for it is [J/m^3] if I am not wrong. I saw it in v4 but com…
-
Hi Victor, I am not sure how new that idea is but I am wondering how easy would that be to make Mecway to use a spreadsheet to read material values? It is quite convinient as you can download material data from material websites as Excel and it is m…
-
I figured it out. The problematic bit was tick in the "Use the same directory as LIML file" in the options, where CCX is being set up. Solving samples from Mecway instalation directory with CCX still creates error as above. Solving another model in …
-
Thanks Victor for solving it!
-
Hi Victor, just had my few first ettempts done and CCX was my stop point. This time for a change it says I have access denied to the path where the CCX.exe is. Avast scanned MY and all went ok so I am wondering why? Hope I am not the problem creator…
-
Hi Victor, The same with thermal analysis. Works ok on experimental system, doesn't work on other system apart going to temp folder and opening CCX result file. By the way, is there any chance that I can change where the solution is being saved. Sys…
-
Hi Victor, Opening .frd file Via Mecway was successful. Good news. Is that mean Mecway can't find the right file to lad it after analysis automatically? If you need some more details please let me know. Thanks, apadzak
-
Hi Victor, I did have a look at the .fdr file in the system with problems and it displayed in the same way as in the system where all results worked fine. Please have a look at the screen videos I made and test suite summery. Videos are here: https…
-
Hi Victor, I did try to open .frd file and it opened in the system where Mecway works fine (there was some error message that CGX can only display displacement) but I couldn't animate results though. I think in the other system I tried to open the .…
-
...and this are results for the PipeClip test performed on the testing system. I was able to manipulate time steps in the table and received all results... I will have a look at CCX requirements and see if I am missing anything on the other system. …
-
Hi All! Victor, I have tried another file which can be analyzed with MW and CCX, I have chosen CadAssembly. CCX wasn't able to solve as in the Pipe Clip example. I have selected exporting solution to CSV and only MW is able to do it, CCX didn't gene…
