Analysis

User is trying to allocate more RAM for his Creo Simulations by updating config.pro file, but it doesn't seem to be reflecting in run summary.sim_solver_memory_allocation          

Looking at the Fatigue study results, can anyone offer any clarification on the Log Life values?  For this model Creo is giving me a Log Life of (20).     How does this calculate to the life of the component if the desired life in the study was set to 50K cycle      

Does anyone know what's the difference between ambient temperature and Farfield temperature?

How does bonded interface in Creo simulate works like? Does it work similar to weld? Or it works as a contact? Or it will just not let the components penetrate into each other?

I am attempting to run a rather simple finite element analysis on a stainless steel rod with a moment (0.1 Nm) applied on one end and a fixed constraint on the other end. The displacement result is not what I had expected and I do not believe it to be realistic (please reference the images). The end of the rod that has an applied moment expands radially. I am attempting to replicate a benchtop test and I know that the rod does not expand radially, instead, it simply rotates and the other end deforms. Am I missing a constraint somewhere? Should I be opting for a nonlinear analysis with large deformations?  Software: Creo 8.0 P.S.: I am much more familiar with ANSYS and am a new Simulate user so any help will be greatly appreciated. 

Every time I enter into the simulate the regeneration taking too long time. Is there any technique to reduce regeneration time or can we pause it?

Hello everyone,  I hope you all are doing well, I need a small information regarding creo simulate. Is there any possibility that i can apply the loads on the mesh element? 1. Because after creating the mesh element, I would like to select the element to apply the loads unfortunately i cant select the element.  2. If i am applying two load cases, how to check the result of both the load cases.           

Hi,I am looking for some learning material on CFD simulations on creo.Can someone help?Thanks!

Is CREO10.0 Simulation Live guaranteed to work with the following graphics cards? NVIDIA Quadro P2000Driver version: 31.0.15.2886Driver Date: 03/22/2023DirectX Version: 12 (FL 12.1)Physical Location: PCI Bus 179, Device 0, Function 0   

How to define amount of points on the beam so i can plot better graphs.All my attempts failed because i have only 5 points on beam and don't know how to increase the amount of points with which creo works. I was using graphing tool from simulate results and it didn't allow me to create or interpolate thru existing points. (better way to do it woulde be to create actual points in mesh with which creo will calculate actual simulation)But how to do it? 

I am trying to simulate a fluid using to cool a component. Simulate Live fluid analysis reports a constant temperature. Just to try to get any kind of response I applied a 20kw heat load over an area in an internal flow and I can't get the temperature of the fluid to rise at all.   Is Live fluid sim capable of telling you the temp of a solid surface by simulating convection cooling?   I'm using Creo 7

I need only Rotation in X released. the representation in image is correct or not? 

Hi. What do the different domain icon colors mean? I've noticed after meshing they can change from the bluish color they normally are. I know I've at least seen green (pictured here) and gray. For the model I'm currently working on, the green icon domains do not let me view any properties (e.g., temperature). Thanks. It would be really nice if there was a place to look up all this stuff that's not explained in help.   

I’m trying to run an FEA on a fixed support beam, I replaced all the bolts with “intelligent fasteners”. I keep getting the “cannot process highlighted contacting surface” error  

Hello, I am trying to re-flatten a wire harness for a manufacturing drawing that I have been working on but I am getting an error that reads "Cannot load drawing template. Please ensure drawing templates are saved on the first sheet". The template I am using only has one sheet, so it is saved on the first sheet. In the past, the only way I have been able to get around this error message is to create a new drawing entirely. How do I avoid this error? This error occurs in the Creo Harness Manufacturing Extension.      

Hi,  After the successful run of my Creo Simulate Solver, I now get an error window, that tells me, that "the output file of the solver is damaged on line #68". Please find the error attached (it's in German).  Does anyone have an idea, how to avoid this happening?    Thanks.    Greetings Tim       

Hello,  I'm trying to perform an air flow simulation on a part that I imported. I used the import doctor to try to fix the geometry and create a solid. But running the simulation, I think it isn't actually doing anything. It appears as a solid body that's why I thought it would work but apparently no.   

I want to give skip weld in Creo. If it's solid, then pattern approach will be there. But when it comes to shell perimeter weld. What will be the best and easiest way? My approach is: Creating surface regions and for the small surface edges I will create Perimeter weld, Where this process is tedious to do. Could someone help me with the easiest way. 

Hello, what does those accuracies means and what is the difference inbetween of them. The only information about them was found in presentation SAXSIM 2017 in Creo roadmapThanks for youra answers in advance.

HI,I would like to examine of peramiter guarding made of steel wire, but i have difficult because i fail to define a force on a grid.Can you help me, please? Thank you best regards      

Hi guys,   Im just wondering if it is possible to get result of overall volume of interfered parts. I have a really complicated assembly and measuring air volume in the closed housing. Some parts are fully in the housing but some are not. So instead of using multi body features I want to I know if there is another option to measure it.  Thanks 

When adding parameter(s) to a part for COMPARATIVE_TRACKING_INDEX.  Demo showed adding value to be applied to a feature.  System allows selection of SURFACE, QUILT, BODY etc. Is the system set-up to use these element types (How ? ) - I have had zero success when trying to add anything BUT a surface.With a complex part file that simplifies a supplier assembly or design concept I have encountered the need to add over 20 surfaces, what would be the best technique to simplify selections, (e.g.; can a quilt be created and used? ).              

Hi,I am trying to run a static analysis of a threaded member and am not sure on how to model it as the threaded member and bracket have clearance.please refer to the image attached. Item # 1 is the object of interest. it passes through and is held in position by the welded bracket (Item # 4). Should i be using a contact interface between the components 1 and 4 ?Could anybody throw some light on how to get this ready for analysis please? Using Creo Simulate 7.0@MartinHanak 

Hello, i'm trying to create simulation of pipe bending but didn't find the way to create movement along trajectory. Is there any way to create translation along trajectory?Trajectory is shown on the image below(green arc)Thanks in advance for any tips.
