Analysis

Dear Community I am using Creo 8.0.8.0. I would like to export or extract simulation results in a easy way into a csv-file or other file format that can be imported into excel. Currently I am facing following problem. I have done a Contact Analysis using 2 time step and I also wrote.In the post processing I created a graph using a measure (force) vs. time. Somehow I cannot export the graph. Also I cannot plot two measures (e.g. bolt force vs. input force) that shows their correlation over each time step. Somehow Creo creates several output-files and also folder of each time step but I am not able to find how to use this file and to extract the information I am interested in. Below you find a screenshot of the graph I would like to export into a CSV or other format.Within the post processing tool (Simulate Result) I was not able to export a CSV file. It was only possible to create a "rwd" file. Following I did:- Nonlinear (Contacts) simulation- Output: 6 Ma

Hello All, I am trying to simulate effect of wind load on glass railing holder which is fitted to ground via. screws. so after defining the constraints , contacts and loads when I review the results I observe that the glass holder penetrates into the ground. see attached screenshot.Can you please advise why is it so and how can it be resolved? I would appreciate your help with it.

Anyone know why fluid domain color is red in flow analysis i have add fluid and solid domain and generate the mesh but it not generated for internal fluid domain i also attached the reference image  

Hello fellow engineers, Recently I updated from Creo 7.0 to Creo 10.0. I am in the middle of a project so maybe it wasn't a good idea. When re-running a buckling analysis that used to return a BLF of about 2.5 in Creo 7.0, now I get values of about 0.5!  Has anyone noticed this pattern? I believe the new 10.0 version is overconservative, as I have done hand-calculations to verify the buckling mode and the plates are nowhere close to buckle.  I believe the solver must have been updated. The model in question corresponds to a crane with a telescopic boom, where the contact pads (usually solids to allow for contact definition, non-linear analysis) are replaced by a beams (linear analysis). 

Good morning community, I have a general question about how Simulate reports rigid modes when "with rigid mode search" is checked.  I created a simple part with a surface constraint and released 1 DOF (in the Z-direction).  I would expect Simulate to report at least one rigid mode that would show the assembly translating along the Z-direction.  The animation does show this but it doesn't say it is a rigid mode.  Wondering why that is?  Is there a frequency threshold before Simulate reports the mode as rigid?  I released 2 DOF of freedom (in Y and Z) and then it does report rigid modes.  However, when I animate it, there is some rotation of the assembly in the first mode which I would expect only translation.  I attached my assembly file.  

I am using Creo Simulate Release 11 and Datecode11.0.1.0We have created fnf file in creo simulate using FEA mode, then we loaded the fnf in creo simulate UI using external file with temp on required node. During loading we set reference temp as 22, after seeing in previews it shows 0 as ref temp.We ran multiple thermostructure analysis, but it shows its not taking 22 as ref temp. & showing worst resultAlso not loading controlled mesh in Creo simulateCreo version: 11.0.1.0

I am using Creo Parametric Release 10.0 and Datecode10.0.3.0Assembling one part with a pin connection to ground. Assembling a second part with a pin connection to the first part. There are no other connections between the two parts. Using a velocity motor the rotate the first part. When running the analysis, the second part rotates as well. It should stay still since there are no connections or forces / motors on it. Why does the second part rotate?

Hi! i've installed creo view express but i can't get it to work, i dont get any error message, it just does not open.    

Hello!I am running a model of a bolted connection between 3 parts. Since CREO does not allow the use of the "Fastener" feature for 3 parts, I defined bonded surfaces to simulate the contact between parts. I also defined non-linear materials in order to evaluate plastic behavior of the system. When a bonded surface is defined in CREO, the program automatically creates measures for the interface forces. However, CREO only shows the interfaces measures when I run a static linear analysis (ignoring plasticity).Is there a workaround to be able to see interface measures when running a non-linear analysis with plasticity? Thanks!    

Hello,i have an aluminium cylinder De60 Di54 L148 [mm]with the attached condition (Condition 1 e 2 . jpg)As a result of the thermal analysis (Thermal_analysis.jpg) i have what show in "Result.jpg" about thermal analysis I'm not sure that is correctCan you give me your opinion about it? Thank you

I'm currently working on trying to evaluate the safety of the screws used for a lift bar of a block but seem to not be able to get reasonable values for the stresses inside the bolts. I believe that the model is over constrained but don't know how to fix it. I'm currently using Creo 11 simulate not the live one.  The assembly consists of a large steel block (approx. 4,400 lbs), with a T-shaped lift bar bolted to it. The lift bar is mounted using three screws: two on either end of the top of the T and one at the base. The lifting point is centered on the crossbar of the T (via an eyebolt), and in the simulation this point is fixed. Gravity is applied in the -Y direction using -386.1 in/sec².The fasteners are 1-inch diameter UNRC coarse-thread screws modeled using Creo Simulate's screw fastener feature. They are threaded directly into the block (no nuts), with preload disabled. The materials are high-carbon alloy steels. Analysis Type: Structural, nonlinear with large defo

Hi all ,   I have to simulate an Escapement mechanism's kinematics.     I want to know if modeling the mechanism in Creo is even feasible before I start.It works back and forth ('foliot') and is not only a two-wheel rotation that is impacted by diameter ratios. (Key innovation: the escapement) I want to know if using a Creo mechanism is even feasible.   I appreciate the answers in advance.

Hello, I am attempting to run a structural design study within Creo Simulate 7.0.4.0. There is a pop-up window that says "The selected functionality requires a Basic Creo Simulate license". From what I read online, you need three licenses (MECELITEUI, MECELITEENG, and CREOSIM_Standard) to access the basic functionalities of Creo Simulate. From ptcstatus, I can see that I am not pulling a MECELITEENG license (even though that license is available on the server).PTCSTATUS shows this:License In Use Free------- ------ ----PROE_DesignEssH Uncounted, LockedPROE_EssentialsPMHome Uncounted, LockedMECELITEENG_License Uncounted, LockedMECELITEENG_License 0 8MECELITEENG_License 0 34MECELITEUI_License Uncounted, LockedMECELITEUI_License 1 7MECELITEUI_License 0 34MathcadPrime Uncounted, LockedMathcadPrime 0 2PROE_EssentialsP 0 8PROE_DesignEss 25 3PROE_EssentialsPM 0 6MECBASICENG_License 0 3MECBASICUI_License 0 3MathcadPrimeSDK 0 2CREOSCHEM_Lite 0 8CREOSCHEM_Lite 0 34CREOSIM_STANDARD 1 2My

What is the correct workflow in simulate - assembly to replace a component with a point mass idealization at the part C.O.G. and constrain it to the assembly with links?When using mass idealization - component at point - the following notification appears: "You have included a mass idealization of a component which contains the highlighted volumes that will be meshed during an analysis. This will result in the mass being accounted for twice in the run."If I create a simplified representation of the part which removes the solid geometry, the simplified representation removes the component from view entirely (including the cog datum point defined in the part).My current approach is to open the part/subassembly to idealize, do mass properties, enable X/Y/Z COG features, then create an offset point with relations using those features to define it. Then I return to the assembly simulation and create an assembly datum point at the assy level defined by the COG location point within the part.

I am using Creo Simulate Release N/A and DatecodeN/ADie Modalanalyse ergab 58 Eigenmoden. Danach möchte ich eine dynamische Analyse im Zeitbereich machen (um die Erregerkräfte in die Struktur einspielen zu können). Wie gewohnt natürlich im Reiter "Vorherige Analyse" die besagte Modalanalyse gewählt. Weiters möchte ich die Dämpfungskoeffizienten für jeden Eigenmode individuell eingeben ... also dementsprechend eingestellt ... und ich hätte erwartet, dass ich nun 58 Eingabemöglichkeiten bekomme. Leider wurden mir nur 4 Eingabemöglichkeiten (für die ersten 4 Eigenmoden) angeboten.Woran könnte dies liegen?Habe derartige Berechnungen schon öfter gemacht und konnte bis jetzt auch die Dämpfungskoeffizienten immer individuell einstellen.Danke schön für Hilfe.SG Markus Plainer

I want to understand the need for the memory allocation limits of 16 Gb for 64 bit machines?? i understand the need of having enough memory for the operating system, but now that machines with 32, 64 and even 128 Gb are comun. I am asking this because i have a model that the global matrix profile is around 100 Gb on the last pass of the MPA analysis and I am working on a machine with 128Gb of RAM

Hello, how can I replace in simulation those kind of bolted joints so preload is included. I need to create linear simulation with bolted joints and analyse those joints so they are accurately represented. The problem is Creo simulate can't create bolted joint while there are more than two parts bolted togeather. Can those bolted joints be recreated as a  beam structure or any kind of spring structure?Thank you in advance
