CAD

Good evening, all.I am in the process of migrating some old MATHCAD 15 worksheet to MATHCAD PRIME 10 ones.I came across this vector field plot that MATHCAD 15 was able to plot and I found that the latest PRIME versions do not have such a plot type.I am pretty confident that someone in the community made some script to replicate such a function.I already saw some attempts made in other threads. However, they work for 2D vector plots.Any chance that someone did for the 3D vector plots as well?I am showing below the type of plot I am looking for.Thanks in advance for your time and support.Regards,Gianfranco  

I'm trying to simulate a constraint on a part fixed with a screw in an oblong (as shown in the image below). The idea was to constraint the region where the screw head reaches, because the diameter of the screw is smaller than the hole. Is this way correct? I'm getting high tension points when simulating, making the part not able to withstand much force in the simulations. I don't have an Advanced Creo Simulate license to use Fastener or Preload tools.

hello,i am currently using creo 10.00.00 while designing in creo for palm feature i have to use scroll button with shift button at a time how can modify the setting such that i can only use scroll button for palm feature in options mouse setting is not visible and in config.pro also i couldn't find any possibilities Help Me

Creo Mechanism doesn't use computer resources Sometimes when creating bigger simulation with non linearities creo mechanism doos simulate this but very slowly without using computer resources. how can i fix this.Used friction, nonlinear forces derived from coordinates.  

In structural simulation, as my understanding that plastic deformation will lead to large deformation. In Cero Simulate, it is allowed to perform plastic deformation with large deformation deselected.  What are the differences between the following structural analysis conditions?1. Only large deformation is calculated, plastic deformation is not calculated.2. Only plastic deformation is calculated, large deformation is not calculated.What is their actual physical significance? Are there any practical cases?   

I'm travelling tomorow morning to Spain for 3 weeks and I might have a copy of my TRIAL PTCMathcad Prime 9.0.0.0 software on my laptop, to fully explore before the end of my 30 days! Apparently 2nd upload (same name & address) is not working. How do I have to proceed? Best regards. Dirk Vanwalle - dirk@vanwalle.be 

Saw not long ago, methodology for plotting load, shear and moment diagrams-   Please point me in the right direction and thanks in advance.

hello, i had creo 9 before working perfectly fine, but wanted to upgrade to creo 10 and this is what is showing me once I installed it, any advice on what to do? 

Am having a difficult time opening a STEP file. Every attempt ends with Creo crashing with the following window: "Auto-traceback info" window appears. Fatal Error Encountered. A Traceback has been written to C:/... I was hoping it might be in part to my "Import New Model" default window settings.  In order from the top of the window..Type: AssemblyProfile: Current Profile              Use template box-Unchecked              Import type: AutomaticOptions: Generate log file-Checked / Short is filled.  Does this look appropriate for a STEP file that is in excess of 600000 KB? 

Hi everyone. I have a mathcad worksheet that I am currently using to generate bending moment and curvature value through iteration.  In this worksheet, the input that I change is just OD, WT, and tconc. My previous input is OD = 323.9, WT = 14.3, and tconc = 120 and the calculation manage to work just fine. However, when I changed the input to OD = 663.2, WT = 23.8, and tconc = 40, the iteration gives an error of "This calculation does not converge to a solution". I'm curious on why this is happening and wondering if anyone has any experience on similar issue. Thank you in advance to anyone that helps out. I really appreciate it.

Hi guys, I am trying to load a distributed load on a circular beam of outer diameter 15mm and inner 13mm and length 1m. The load has got to start from 50N and linearly decrease to 0. I have tried using the function definition to apply a function of 50-50*X, however the load seems to be evenly distributed. Any ideas thanks very much  

Hello, everyone. This is the topic: I have sheet metal parts that can be created in mm or inches. For drawings, we have double dimensions: mm and in. I would like to have a table showing:Column_1                   Column_2Bend radius:              xx.x mm (yy.y in)Material thickness:     xx.x mm (yy.y in) Where: xx.x and yy.y are called by parameters. yy.y would only be xx.x times 25.4 (or viceversa). To take in consideration:I have a parameter that is unit sensitive already set up called "Conversion", which tells me the length units: mm or in, under the column "Unit".Those can be 2 different tables: one table for parts/drawings in "mm", and for parts/drawings in "in".Then:How to setup a relation that makes the conversion between them depending on the units?As I know it's possible to set up relations using "if" and "else".Considering that for repeat regions

Dear PTC Community, I was recently working with a Mathcad Prime 9.0 worksheet that uses the Pdesolve function, but what I can't seem to do is define a first-derivative boundary condition (Neumann condition) in which temperature at the boundary is one of the arguments.  I get the error message "Bad algebraic constrain."  I've attached a zip file containing the worksheet.  If you can, please help me troubleshoot this issue, or else let me know that what I'm trying to do is not possible. Thanks for your time!--Bob

Good evening all. I have digitized some data points (see the 3D picture), in order to use interpolations in 3D.The data are arranged in a matrix with N rows and 3-columns, each representing a coordinate. I need to create a data matrix for the functions "Bicubic2D" and "Create Mesh". The idea is to sort the data by the Z values and for each of them retrieving the matching X and Y values. Unfortunately duplicate Z-values are found, but belonging to different set of X and Y values. I would need some hints if someone encountered such a challenge before. Thanks in advance for the help.Regards,Gianfranco

From Val Ochkov:   How to solve in Prime 9?

As the title says, when I'm in a Simp Rep of a part, I cannot edit any features or move the insert line / rollback bar. Is this... normal? Surely Creo doesn't only allow features to be edited in the Master Rep, right? That would be a complete mess to work with. 

Hi everyone, Teaching myself how to pipe in Creo but having some difficulties with adding elbows. I keep having an issue with, "the fitting does not match to selected corner. Can not place.".  In this case, I'm trying to use PTCs fittings library. I've tried a few different diameters on the pipe, as that is what I thought was the issue the first time, but it hasn't resolved. Image below for reference.  Extra information:- Creo 9- Have tried other sizes- Have tried in both MM and inches Thank you!

is there any way to create Flare at the tube ends in Creo piping module? please suggest. I'm creating the new copper tube which requires Flare at the end. I was trying to add revolve feature but couldn't do it since it is in assembly mode - Refer the attached image.

This strange text field keeps popping up when I accidentally hit a non-mapped key on my keyboard, and until I hit "enter" to clear this text field, none of my hotkeys work because they just keep being typed as letters into this text field. Is there any way to disable this text field so it doesn't impede my hotkeys? I'm using Creo 9, but this happened in Creo 8 and Creo 7 as well.       

I am using Creo Parametric Release 9.0 and Datecode9.0.0.0I have a colleague, that runs Creo parametric version 9.0 on a Dell precision 3640, but creo will maybe crash 4-5 times a day with little to no warning, minus the not responding ciricle from windows. We went through the complete uninstallation and reinstallation multiple times, and even led to wiping the computer to try solve the issue. We removed any other applications that could have been affecting performance. The pc is also connected to 2 27 inch monitors displaying 2560 x 1600 resolution, but the issue still remained.If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be happy to hear, thank you.

Im using Creo Elements Direct, when i press this part the cursor is not straight.Can i change this?    

 

When editing a part in a assembly, it becomes very difficult to see the part that is toggled off. I'm using Creo 10I've tried playing around with the system appearance settings, but I just can't find it. If there is an option to change the opacity at all. Having the part view stay in its original view would be ok too.Any help is appreciated.  

Hi, I am using reference patterns to pattern the bolt groups in my assembly. The first reference pattern is great and everything generates as expected. See pictures attached for details. The next reference pattern of the two socket head cap screws is a bit weird since the instance dots in the feature menu show the second instance being in the wrong location. Upon generation, it appears in the correct location but it is unsettling. The third reference pattern (four bolts) shows the instance dots in the right location in the feature menu, but upon generation, only the washer is in the correct position. The bolt, nut side washer, and nut seem to locate themselves at the first instance location. It is really weird because I have the bolt group constrained the same way as the first bolt pattern in my model tree which worked fine. Any thoughts on how I can resolve this? TIA
