Hello there,Creo2.0 M060A transient thermal analysis, requesting full results at each user defined interval ...1. I cannot space the master steps equally, the button is greyed out (attached screenshot)2. I cannot overtype 'auto' with my own numbers.3. Despite full results being selected for each time step (whatever that is determined by the s/w), only full results for time=0 is available to view.4. In Structure I get the error message that there isn't a thermal analysis with user defined steps.Soooo,I presume we are being ushered toward steady state with nonlinear/Use Load Histories as with the nonlinear buttons pressed it appears I can do the above (haven't actually run a model yet)The help guides users to create a transient thermal by 'FILE>NEW TRANSIENT THERMAL'Have I missed the point or is 'transient thermal' about to disappear in the form that I used to use?ThanksPS. Why can't I have negative convection coefficients any more?This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Communi

Good Day All,As far as I can tell it's not possible to do batch analysis when in Pro/E (Creo) Mechanism?Trying to run multiple mechanism analyses on one assembly and using multiple simplified reps.Would like to set the mechanism analysis up so they are run automatically by distributed batch or the way Pro/E Mechanica (Simulate) runs in batch mode.I have multiple analyses that take either several hours to run or days and would like to set it up walk away and just let them run.I would also like to automate the process of saving off the measurement graph data to excel format along with an mpeg movie file for each analysis.Anyone have any ideas?Thanks for any help you can throw my way,Don AndersonThis thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

Hi everyone,I'm starting using Mathcad, so maybe I am just missing something. What I want to do seems really basic to me, but I spent hours looking for that and did't find a solution.The problem is really common in engineering: I have one problem but many different solutions that I want to compare. For instance, choose a material for a structure. The shape is exactly the same, so the calculation sheet for the flexion of the beam would work for all the materials, but I want to make it with different properties such as Young modulus and density, and compare all the results at the same time.A very similar way would work in Excel, by simply applying the same formula to many different lines of a material list with all properties for instance.A solution I can see would be to integrate a Mathcad worksheet in Excel as a formula. Isn't it the purpose of Input and Ouput fields in Mathcad? Or I didn't get it...I can't imagine this isn't a very basic feature of Mathcad, I guess I should be blind I

Hi all,After doing so many complex design and engineering calculations, i am stuck with this simple plus minus calculation.I have to do this addition and subtraction of dimenssions with tolerances, as shown in the attached image.Request you to please help. As i want similar representation of Tolerances in mathcad sheets.Thanks,Shashank

Hey. I have two problems.I have uploaded the mathcad document with description also, but:How to always "Hide keywords"?If I have:g:=5then if I use the explicit,ALL funtion it does this:h:=(1 / (g (angle sign) 10)) explicit,ALL (arrow) (1 / (5*cos(10) + 5*sin(10))I want it to write (5 (angle sign) 10) on the right side so it keeps the polar format way.Anyone who knows?I have attached it in MC15 and 12 version.

I have an academic license and I am trying to install Creo 2.0, downloaded on this page (MED-100WIN-CD-390_M070_Win32-64). Itsn't the first time that I install the program because the license was not working and uninstall it. But this time, trying to install it, the setup.exe doesn't work! I run it and nothing happens. I tried many things (run as administrator, run in safe mode, run with other compatibility ...) but nothing works when the first time I installed everything was fine. Also installer of trial version runs but the full version no. When I run setup it generates the following file "traceback":   --------------------- The timestamp is: vie jun 28 05:51:48 13 The datecode is: NA The pro machine type is: NA The process ID is: NA The traceback type is : CRASH ------------------------------------------------- Exception EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION has occurred in the thread 2764.

Hello,I use mathcad 14. i am attaching a mathcad sheet and an excel sheet that i would like to import it as a table in mathcad to be able to look values for my variables. Based on the selected "Deck Type", it will go in the table which i would like to name"Deck" find the selected deck type, and then look up the proper value for each variable. i listed two variables, "application type" and Gage. Thanks for your help!

Can you recommend an available video that steps a team through using Creo Parametric with Windchill. We have multiple subteams (e.g. drives, acquisition, storage, shooter, ...). Each of these areas is working on CAD for their contribution to the team. They all have to integrate. Currently the only way we have figured out how to do this is to have the Drives team publish and assembly. Then have the Acquistion team use the Drives team assembly... and add their component... creating a combined drives and acquistion assembly. The Storage team pulls in the combined drives and acquisition assembly... adds the storage assembly... and publishes this new expanded assembly.... and so on until all of the team components have been added.I am guessing this is not the normal or recommended processes. I am looking for what is the recommended process for multiple teams to work independently... but still be able to pull in the latest design updates from other teams to validate integration requirements.

Hello all, i have a small assembly of 2 parts, one part being a generic & the other being its instance (family table member) of this generic. I want to save a copy of the assembly & the 2 parts, while maintaining the family table, but what appears to happen is that the newly created part looses its family table instance, the instance becomes a stand alone model. Is it possible to save a copy in this way? I found a work around which is to copy all the files outside Creo, in the windows environment, & then rename everything in Creo, a bit painful, but it worked.JohnThis thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

Hi,we're setting up a development environment for Windchill 10.0. We run the PTC Solution Installer , and we've reached the step where we're requested about providing CDs (Service, PDMLink, etc...). The issue is the last CD requested is Windchill Service Pack, but this CD doesn't appear in our download list.Where can we find it?Thanks.

Hi all,I've designed a spring and I want to see if the value of tensions are, more or less, the same I've calculated with the formulas.The matetial is "springflex" with E=206000 MPaG=81500 MPaSu=2270 MPad=0.9mmIn my calculation, the spring is verified.Anyway, the results that Mechanica gives me (I've used WF5 for the FEM simulation) provides tensions much much high...I've done two tipe of analysis:1) I've imposed the displacement (35 mm)2) I've imposed the force (25 N)but, for me, the results are incorrect but I don't know why.I've tryed "linear" and "non-linear" analisys for with large deformations.GreetingsThis thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

Hello all, I am totally buffled by what I get on my contour plots. I have attached the file. In the file I have also included a picture from the Excel contour plot which proves that the Mathcad plots are wrong. Basically I have the 3 vectors defined as matrices, x, y ans z and I create the 3d matrix based on the procedure I came across on a similar plot related discussion thread of this forum. The contour lines on the plot I create appear correct but the colours are plotted wrong. I think that the problem is that two different bands have the same colour(!) but should have different ones based on the legend underneath. This doesn't make any sense. Before I totally give up on this and continue my work in Excel I wanted to submit this question in the forum. Also, a separate -less critical- question: is there any chance that I can have axis titles on my plots, instead of having to put text blocks all over...Any help is appreciated, Thanks, Panos

Hi All,I am Using Windchill 10.1 with jre 7.0 Build 25.when i open a workflow editor, i am not able to see the selected Robots in Editor area.Normally when we create a new Workflow, it opens a Workflow editor with Start Robot.we acn put the required Robots in to Editor area and some logic to them.but in my case when i open a new workflow editor it opens but not showing start robot..if i try to put any robot in editor area it opens but it is not visible.same if i try to view existing OOTB worklfows in editoe it gives me Blank editor and if i click randomley in area then the robots are opens in Pop ups but they are not visible .i check the java versions. it is as per PTC's Recommadations.here are two fig which howing the differeance.This is the Actaual WF editor which normaly opens.This is the WF Editor on My system without Start Flag.Please suggest the solution.Thanks,Vivek

Pictured is the top part of our scissor mechanism. There's a Pin constraint at every joint where the beams intersect. They work fine and 'scissor' as expected.Now I want to attach the beam with the slot and hole in in such that it's Pinned to one scissor beam (at B) and a peg in the other beam (A) slides through the slot as the scissors expand/contract.I've been at this for a while and just can't get it - usually I can't get past 'connection definition is incomplete' sort of messages. If I do get past that it just doesn't do much of anything.I've tried Slot and Slider constraints on A using the hole on the scissor beam and putting an axel through it and using that.I've defined an axis and planes but they're not taken as valid selections while defining the constraints. This makes me wonder if I'm just doing something fundamentally wrong - I'm not a mechanical engineer type.Thanks,Dan HoltFTC 7300 Mentor

Hello folks,I have here a worksheet (MC15 on a 64 bit Win 7 machine) in which I tried to achieve by a solve block what I have done with an iteration. It is a plain heat transfer problem for which I try to compute the gas temperature in a confined volume.Problem is that the Find function works like a charm but delivers a wrong answer; the solver finds a linear temperature increase wheas my iteration shows a saturation effect. I suspect that I have stated the conditions wrong. Does anybody have the time at hands to check what's wrong?Thank'sRaikoSorry, but it's in German.

Hello, I'm trying to install Creo 2.0 Student Edition. The installation guide tells me to enter my product code (which I have) into the "Simply License Entry" field and to click "Install Licensing". Unfortunately, the text box is not an active field, and doesn't allow for any text entry. The "Install Licensing" button is similarly greyed out.I disabled my firewall and antivirus, and am running the program as an administrator in Windows 7. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Why can't I use "edit design" on my assembly? I can use it in parts but when I click in assembly it doesn't work. I can "show design" which links me to a temp.lst file rather than a ".als" file which would refer to the model design program of an assembly. I'm trying to have input variables in my assembly which would modify the length of the parts assembled. I can make the relations work, just can't get it to automate or link to data file.Thanks for the help...This thread is inactive and closed by the PTC Community Management Team.

Hello, I've got a severe issue with Mathcad Prime 2.0, and I'm not sure if it is my fault, or a bug in the program. Attached, you can find the example worksheet. I've cut it out from a more complex sheet and simplified it as much as possible (all units left out etc.).In the upper area, a function k(T,M) is defined. I now want to cut out one-dimensional slices of this 2-dimensional function: k_hi(T) and k_lo(T), where M is not constant, but depends on the given constant parameter P and T. I define both a range variable Temp=200, 220 ... 300 and a vector Temp' with the same values. Now I output both k_hi(Temp), using the range variable, and the vector k'_hi = k_hi(Temp'). (same for lo instead of hi). As you can see, the results for the vector are different from the range variable result! They are in the same order of magnitude, though, so it could be a numerical precision issue. (Is there any possibility to play around with internal floating point precision in Mathcad Prime 2.0?) But thi
