There is a section in Helicopter Theory, Johnson, pp 40, that deals with the equations to calculate the swirl in the wake behind a rotor. I believe with minor adjustments, it would apply to a propeller. Most of the swirl is due to lift induced torque, the drag induced torque appears to be...
I'll try to restate the procedure above. You can solve the basic m xddt + c xdt k x = F*dirac(t-t0), for a set of modes, like five or 7. Here, x, is the modal dof. So, for each increment in time, try to guess the frequency from looking at the landing data, which appears to consist of several...
I have carrier landing acceleation data of a pod, and have created a NASTRAN model of the pod. I would like to
a) represent the landing accel data in NASTRAN for fatigue analysis
b) evaluate the landing accel data vs airspeed to identify trends for extending to other landing speeds.
So...
OK, I took a week of CATIA V training a while back (maybe six years). And I know I have a workbook somewhere, but .... I need to generate dimensioned drawings of assemblies built up from v4.2 models. I need both exterior and cross section views. Can someone give me enough detailed steps so I...
From memory, I believe Tsi-Wu indicates failure prior to max strain, see NASTRAN theory regarding margin of safety. So that is part of the issue. And, of course, we are talking about limina strains, not laminate strains. The main problem I have is lack of coupon data for the allowable off...
Rows or columns of a matrix can be deleted by setting the elements equal to the empty matrix
i.e.
% Make a simple matrix
a=rand(3,5)
% Copy matrix and then display and remove the second row
b = a;
b(2,:)
b(2,:) = []
% Copy matrix and then remove the display and third and fourth columns
c =...
From memory, I believe that in the NASTRAN theory manual there is a discussion of failure criteria (or margin of safety) that illustrates the different criteria on a stress plot. I'm too lazy to walk upstairs to check the manuals right now.

Either CGR, IGES, or STEP will work. Since CGR is not an option in v4, then IGES or STEP will have to do. I have someone starting to utilize the translation utility in CATIA version 4 to do the conversion. I'm waiting for results from him. In the mean time, I'm trying to find another...

Can you explian the steps to output cgr format in more detail. I only have a novice understanding of using CATIA v 4. How do I turn the CACHE on, or check if it is on. When it is on, where does the cgr output go?
