1. Maximum number of boundary conditions

   

   by simon · February 2018

   With less BCs, the model solves just fine. Both versions also work with CCX. I was wondering if there is a limit in Mecway or if this is due to some settings on my system? The same thing also happens

2. Beam element + torsion

   

   by Victor · February 2018

   angle is no longer generated automatically in version 8 so it doesn't see that unless you add it. I'll have to fix this so it doesn't use Twist angle.

3. Beam element + torsion

   

   by azr285 · February 2018

   I was playing around with the new version of the software and I think I found something weird, maybe a bug. The web (beam element) in the CompositeBeam.liml sample file doesn't rotate as in the manual

4. ERROR - Index was outside the bounds of array

   

   by Victor · January 2018

   Thanks. This seems to be a bug in Netgen which is generating a corrupt surface preview. I don't know why it's happening but for the next version it'll show an error message and continue to read what i

5. CCX 2.13

   

   by Andrea · January 2018

   Maybe depends from the CCX compiled version for Windows.

6. Skipping initial data in dynamic simulation

   

   by Sergio · January 2018

   Victor, for CCX and no lineal models, is possible to implement on next version the FRECUENCY option for saving data every x increment?

7. Impact but no visible stresses

   

   by Victor · January 2018

   the .frd file in Mecway - including the free version - and stress should appear in the outline tree if it exists in the .frd file. See attached picture.

8. CCX Post processing problem

   

   by swaraj · January 2018

   Hey,As i was using mecway trial version to evaluate it, I only got 1000 nodes.So I decided to use calculix solver instead.I tried basic ball impacting a plate to test its post processing and value. Bu

9. Paraview / VTK

   

   by harryvanlangen · January 2018

   was being considered, but cannot find this in version 8. So my question are: did VTK export get implemented or are there other (external) ways to create result files that GMSH or Paraview can import?

10. Contact Issues

    Which version of CCX are you using?

11. CCX 2.13

    

    by Hengre · December 2017

    I tried your last Version of ccx_2.13_MT from guthub

13. CCX 2.13

    

    by kwip · December 2017

    I did some research finding other projects having issues with ARPack which is kind of EOL. ocatve, scilab were forking their own implementation. There is some effort of consolidation, namely arpack-ng

14. CCX 2.13

    

    by Andrea · December 2017

    disla: Andrea I remember you posting some similar problem that was not with the linux version...

15. CCX 2.13

    

    by disla · December 2017

    kwip could be right when says "There has to be something with the environment ccx is started". Same file and same solver with MEC 7 and MEC 8 show an improvement in solution as I said on my

16. CCX 2.13

    

    by Andrea · December 2017

    The error found on buckling factor is not due to CCX version. Same error you will find using CCX under linux.

17. CCX 2.13

    

    by disla · December 2017

    Seems that for this new version solution with ccx_2.13_MT.exe could be right but with much higher number of elements than internal solver.

18. CCX 2.13

    

    by Andrea · December 2017

    For Mecway user: definition of spring elements is not compatible with CCX from version 2.12.

19. Unable to obtain stress in thermal simulation

    

    by Sergio · November 2017

    Could it be that in the new version you must ask for it specifically before solvin? I will check later.

    Thanks for pointing that out. It won't work for any CCX solutions. I'll disable that in the next version.
