I just had something similar with simulating a rubber/steel bushing used in automotive suspension. When position tolerance for tie was set to 0, there would be parts which was not connected but when the position tolerance was set to 1mm, then it bo…

So now I got a new workstation and Damn it is fast! CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-core processor 3,7 GHz. RAM: 64 GB Mecway 15, calculix 2.19, ccx_static.exe. Running PaStiX. The same environment variables as my comment above. Runtime with 1 CPU co…

@Sergio I did export some surfaces at the faces because they only bent one way and some surfaces at the mid-plane because they bent both ways or had contacts from both sides and I thought that that would make it easier to make the contacts as the su…

What I'd really like is a continuum shell element like ANSYS has SOLSH190, ABAQUS has SC8R or possibly the "layerwise kinematic method" by J. N. Reddy. It would really be cool for sheet metal or composites analysis but with the difficulties of shell…

@disla 7. These factors are not 1 since they are what is describing the relationship between the stresses and the force, width and module so in some sense they are describing the (assumptions of) geometry and the load direction. It is how the stres…

@disla No problems, I'm happy to discuss with peers. Sorry if I'm dragging it too far away from the main subject of constraining movement but I just got excited when I saw a post on the subject of modeling gears. 1. Maximum bending stress and max…

I'm also analyzing gears but a bit differently than what you have shown since I'm doing it for designing purposes and are doing it at only two orientations per pair. I'm doing it in 3D because my gears are not completely uniform in cross-section, s…

@protontim I've also had issues with meshing gears exported as step files from solidworks where the solution was to check "split periodic faces". I haven't figured out what caused the issue as some gears had issues while others hadn't even though th…

@Victor The "relative to previous" option when placing individual nodes by coordinates has dissappeared in the beta 3 version of mecway 15. Is this intentional or a bug?
-
@Victor, Fine about the solver, I'll just copy files like I did with version 14. If distributed node-surface coupling gives the wrong results, then of course we shouldn't use that but it's just nicer to not have to calculate the magnitude of the m…

Congratulations on the new release. Could you elaborate a bit on the "CCX updated to 2.19 with source code that includes all required MKL files" part? It is still the Spooles solver that's inkluded as far as I can tell, as it is what runs when I r…

CPU: Intel i7 4700MQ @ 2.4 GHz RAM: 2x8GB DDR3L SSD harddisk. Spooles solver: 8min 1s PaStiX solver, OMP_NUM_THREADS=1: 2min 22s PaStiX solver, OMP_NUM_THREADS=2: 2min 17s PaStiX solver, OMP_NUM_THREADS=3: 1min 54s PaStiX solver, OMP_NUM_THREADS=4…

Hi there How many things in the Intel oneAPI base toolkit is required? For example, the Intel Distribution for Python takes up a lot of space so i'd prefer to only install what is nessecary for this to work. Also, the files "mkl_core.1.dll" did n…
