I can't figure out how to change the units in Mechanica. The default stress units are lbm/in s^2. I would like the default stress units to be psi. How do I do this. Thanks ahead of time!

    Hello When you create a part, and go into the Mechanica modual, a screen appears and tells you what units you are using. To change units, do it in part mode, by picking edit => set up => units. This should work for an assembly also. Rick
