1. LBA: Different Results with Internal VS CCX Solver

   

   by Victor · April 2021

   Beware that some versions of CCX have a bug that excludes modes with a buckling much below 1. The version of CCX 2.16 that comes with Mecway 13.1 is OK but other 2.16's might not be. Disla's way of ad

2. Mecway13 and Multi-threaded CCX

   

   by Victor · April 2021

   Intel MKL Pardiso files are included with Mecway 13.1. You just need to get the CCX version that has been compiled for it according to step 2 in this comment. https://mecway.com/forum/discussion/comme

3. CCX modal mass with density / with lumped masses

   

   by Victor · April 2021

   Modal mass/etc is on my list as a few people have asked for it before but it probably won't be done for the next version, sorry.

4. CCX modal mass with density / with lumped masses

   

   by mathiasf · April 2021

   @Victor : do you think it might be possible to compute the modal mass of each mode with the intern solver in future version ? Mecway is much more permissive in terms of element types for vibration ana

5. Mecway on Linux

   

   by Victor · April 2021

   Version 13 has a mecway.exe.config installed with it. A difference is that it now requires .Net Framework 4.5 and probably no longer works with .Net Framework 3.5 because it includes IronPython which

6. Bugs with offset shells and CCX

   

   by Victor · March 2021

   They will be fixed in version 14.

7. Coreform Cubit mesh import

   

   by tk1537 · March 2021

   Cubit used to be Trelis, but now Coreform markets it, and they have a free 50000 element version (for hobbyists and students), which is what I used. I tried the Abaqus (inp) export but gave unexpecte

8. Exporting results for posterior validation

   

   by pasquinade · March 2021

   I tried using the "free" version again and Mecway works exactly as I was requesting, as a viewer.

9. Exporting results for posterior validation

   

   by pasquinade · March 2021

   I think what would be great is if the "free" version of Mecway could be used as a viewer, even if the mesh is large. I tried it and it does not work (it does not show the results), but it do

10. Salome not saving

    

    by DaveStupple · March 2021

    Our IT man did a fine job last time of getting Salome running on Windows after I had difficulty, and he created a little batch file to start it up properly. He was going to install the latest version

11. Step for axisymmetric

    

    by dmetz · February 2021

    If we do as a 3D static, we can set up the FEA loads, supports etc. on the relevant geometry surfaces. Then each iteration they save the STEP version from CAD, then reload and remesh, but everything e

12. Tuned Vibration Absorber

    

    by Hengre · February 2021

    We hopefully get an C-virus-free Version 14.0 :-)

13. Tuned Vibration Absorber

    

    by ctasso · February 2021

    I am very much looking forward to the release of the new version 14 of Mecway with the new improvements. Is there any forecast for this launch?

14. Mass and DoF outputs don't match

    

    by Victor · February 2021

    Thanks for reporting this bug. It's been present for a long time and I'll fix it for version 14.

15. OT Translation

    

    by Victor · January 2021

    Or that it's a different version of the standard? The site has a to link what looks like B30.20 2013 but ends up at a page for 2018.

17. Improvement suggestions

    

    by 3rav · December 2020

    The Windows version does not support GPU computing due to the lack of nvcc (CUDA -> only nvidia) compiler in the mingw environment (msys2).

20. CCX PARDISO and Intel MKL Install Notes

    

    by prop_design · October 2020

    In previous threads, people asked how to install the Intel MKL so that CCX PARDISO version will run. This is an update, since the versions and paths always change. For the latest Intel MKL version 202
