Hello,
My workaround to this problem was to split the model up into two sections with the interface on the plane you want to probe the result. As long as you set the contact condition to 'bonded' it will behave as a single entity. This allows you to probe the nodes on the section you desire...
Is it possible to attach a screenshot of what you get? Sometimes if Deformed plot is set to automatic or the model has not been adequately restrained the result plot can go offscreen.
Other than that without more info I have no idea what might be wrong. Perhaps make sure that your video driver...
Hello, I'm not at work at the minute (5 hours ahead) so I don't have COSMOS in front of me. To get the consistant element size you have to have separate parts and you have to apply the mesh control to the part (selecting 'Use same element size') not just the boundary surface.
In my assembly I...
Thanks for the pic - I get it now!
I can think of one thing you can try to get the gradient right into the middle of the cylinder but you are going to have to split your part up into multiple parts.
When you are assigning a mesh control you can select an entire part for the control from the...
Hello,
I'm not too clear on what you are describing - is it possible to upload some screenshots?
You can create a mesh gradient in COSMOSWorks by adjusting the two mesh control parameters below the element size one in the mesh control menu. The first one is element growth rate and defaults to...
Hello,
I have had this error before. I believe this happens when you modify a part's properties (geometric or material) but forget to right click on the study and select 'update all components'.
Hope this helps

Hello,
I am running a linear static analysis on a spherical bearing assembly model. The 'no penetration' contact condition is applied to most faces but I have been careful to have adequate restraints.
The solution looks good. However, as I modify the mesh controls to increase the DOF and...
