I've done several tests. The model is a cylindrical shell with a concentric solid ring which is smaller in length than the shell. The ID of the ring and the OD of the shell are identical. The global contact constraint is set to bonded.
I tried creating a contact set between the ID of the ring...
I am modeling an assembly in Simulation 2009 and I have noticed that the mesh seems to be incompatible between the solids and the shells, regardless of whether they're touching or I create contact sets or I create split lines on the shell. I'm concerned that the parts are not connected in the...
Hello ENzo36:
Let me see if I can explain this coherently. Geostar is the "engine" that Cosmos Works (now called SolidWorks Simulation) uses to solve FEA problems. You can run Geostar separately. It has much more capability that SolidWorks Simulation but is much more difficult to use. Some...
Is there a way to write a script or macro to run consecutive transient thermal analyses in Geostar? Currently, we start an analysis with 1 second time steps for 200 seconds, then restart the analysis with longer time steps.
